International Internship in EduCARE India

Working closely with staff, EduCARE interns acquire knowledge and skills in specific areas, work on critical assignments and projects, receive exposure to various professions, and gain first-hand experience working in a non-profit settings in India.

Nature of Work

The exact nature of the work which the intern will do depends heavily on two interactive factors: the intern and her/his qualifications and interests; and the projects and the programmes which EduCARE is engaged at the time s/he is with us.

It is important to us that an internship with EduCARE is a valuable experience for both parties. This means that our goals and aims should be furthered through the work the intern does while s/he is able to grow professionally, maximising the benefit gained from being with us. For this reason, we start off by developing a work-programme, to give clear structure to interns' time with us (although naturally it remains flexible).

The internship involves a variety of job roles including project management, reasearch work combining field work at the national, state, district or village level, as well as data analysis and report writing, culminating in a final presentation in Mohali - Chandigarh at the end of the internship period.
