World Trade Organization Internship Program 2024

Published: 21 Feb 2024

The WTO Secretariat maintains a variety of internship programmes for post-graduate students. Internship selections are based on merit, taking account of eligibility criteria, academic qualifications and expertise.

There are three internship programmes at the WTO: (1) The WTO Internship Programme is open to post-graduate students from all WTO members and countries or customs territories engaged in accession negotiations; (2) The China LDC and Accessions Programme (also known as the China WTO Accession Internship Programme); and (3) the WTO Support Programme for Doctoral Studies. Both (2) and (3) are reserved for post-graduate students from developing countries and least developed countries (LDCs).

The internship programmes are designed to increase the diversity of the WTO. The WTO Internship Programme provides an opportunity for post-graduate students from WTO member and observer countries to gain valuable experience from working at the WTO.

Benefits of WTO Internship Program
  • Interns receive a daily allowance of CHF 60 (including weekends and official holidays falling within the selected period). Travel expenses to and from Geneva cannot be paid by the WTO, and such travel is not covered by the Organization’s insurance.
  • Medical health insurance coverage is mandatory in Switzerland, and interns are responsible for organizing their own health insurance prior to commencing their internship at the WTO.
Requirements for WTO Internship Program

To be considered for the internship, you must:

  • Be a national of a WTO member state or a country or customs territory engaged in accession negotiations
  • Have completed your undergraduate studies in a relevant discipline and have completed at least one year of your postgraduate studies
  • Be at least 21 years old and a maximum of 30 years old during the internship
Application Deadline

Not Specified

How to Apply
  • Candidates should submit their applications through the WTO external jobs platform, and only candidates selected for interview are contacted. The system provides instructions for online application procedures. A roster of suitable candidates is maintained from which interns are selected. Suitable applications are maintained on the roster for one year.
  • Intake to the WTO Internship Programme is on an ongoing basis, with no specific recruitment period. However, there may be specific vacancy notices for internship positions requiring particular qualifications and skillsets published on the WTO’s e-recruitment website.
