The UNIFEM Internship Programme offers a small group of outstanding graduate-level students the opportunity to acquire direct exposure to UNIFEM's work. It is designed to complement women's development-oriented studies with practical experience in various aspects of multilateral technical cooperation, but also complements other international studies, including law.

Internship assignments vary greatly in terms of content. They may have a country-specific, regional, sectoral, or thematic focus. However, interns are normally involved in some aspect of the design, implementation and evaluation of UNIFEM-supported programmes and projects. Every attempt is made to match the interests of the intern with the needs of the organization .

Internship assignments vary in length according to the availability and academic requirements of the intern, as well as the needs of UNIFEM. Assignments are available on a part-time and full-time basis throughout the year.

Interested candidates may submit an application anytime indicating her/his interests and availability.
