The Global Health Fellows Program (GHFP) is excited to offer international internships for Summer of 2009. These internships fulfill an important program goal—to help develop a diverse workforce of global health technical experts.
Ten interns will be selected to work at community-based organizations in Cambodia, India, and Senegal. In the past, interns have worked with organizations such as Bridges Across Borders, Cambodia Center for Human Rights, and India’s Rural Development Center. All interns can expect a hands-on experience in the field of global health. For undergraduate and graduate students, and for those seeking a mid-career change, these compensated opportunities can be a crucial first step in gaining overseas experience. The internships are eight weeks long and include pre-departure training in Washington, DC.
Application deadline: March 15, 2009
Internships begin: June 1, 2009
GHFP is working with the One World Foundation to implement the international internship program. For additional information, visit the One World Foundation Website, or click on the application (http://www.theoneworldfoundation.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/one-world-2009-application.doc).
