Internships with Trace Foundation
The aim of Trace Foundation's internship program is to support young, promising individuals in obtaining practical experience in development work. This is an excellent opportunity for outstanding individuals interested in pursuing careers in the field of development who also have a commitment to Tibetan culture. Through our program, we hope to provide young professionals with the knowledge, resources and practical experience necessary to further develop their skills.
Through this program, we also hope to cultivate a pool of future candidates who are interested in the mission of the foundation. Projects supported by the foundation reflect our guiding principles, and currently fall within four program areas:
We encourage those interested to visit our website to familiarize themselves with our work and to identify areas of particular interest.
Intern vacancies are posted as they become available. If no vacancies are listed, you may submit your application for future positions. We invite you to continue to check the website for openings.
Internships vary in length depending upon the actual assignment.
Applicants must have an undergraduate level of Junior year or higher to be considered.
All international internships will be on a non-salaried basis. Trace Foundation will provide travel to/from the post, appropriate accommodations, and a modest per diem for international assignments.
The foundation will provide information and assistance on applying for your travel visa.
Medical insurance must be in place prior to travel to the field. If the intern does not have insurance, Trace will attempt to provide insurance through International Medical Group with the premium being billed to the intern.
