Development & Outreach Intern

vor 2 Wochen

Freiburg, Freiburg, Schweiz Human Rights Watch Vollzeit

Development & Outreach Division

Application Deadline: 31 January 2023
Due to COVID-19, many of our offices are operating in reduced capacity. HRW prioritizes the safety of our interns.

In locations that have eased office restrictions and are open at a limited capacity, interns are not expected to report to the office and remote arrangements will remain an option for the foreseeable future.

However, interns may have the option of reporting to an office on a voluntary basis in accordance with HRW's COVID-19 policies.

This internship is best suited for those individuals interested in gaining experience in a large, well-organized, international non-profit organization. Interns will gain knowledge and skills in research, database management, event management, and fundraising. The intern will also learn about the organization's priority human rights issues.

In order to provide a valuable and well-rounded internship experience, interns will attend planning and department meetings with staff and will have the opportunity to take advantage of in-house trainings and briefings.


Responsibilities:

The internship will focus on assisting the team with in-person event planning, writing acknowledgment letters and other correspondence, coordinating donor communication, engaging donors, using databases, and conducting desk research for development and outreach projects.

The intern will be an active member of HRW's Development and Outreach department and will intern closely with other staff members to identify and create opportunities for donor involvement in HRW by keeping existing and prospective supporters informed of our work.


Applicants who are offered an internship, but who are not Swiss or EU citizens or permanent residents, must possess valid work authorization in Switzerland for the duration of the internship.

Compensation:

Interns will receive a gross monthly stipend of CHF 1,550, per month, which will be pro-rated based on the number of hours they are in the office to help offset living expenses in accordance with HRW policy and the intern.

Students are often able to arrange academic credit, as HRW internships may offer direct exposure to the workings of an international human rights organization, close supervision by the HRW staff, and interaction with other international organizations and foreign and domestic government officials.

Students should check with their individual academic institutions for requirements.


Human Rights Watch is an international human rights monitoring and advocacy organization known for its in-depth investigations, its incisive and timely reporting, its innovative and high-profile advocacy campaigns, and its success in changing the human rights-related policies and practices of governments and international institutions.
