Overview of the IISD Geneva Internship Program
The IISD Geneva Internship Program offers students studying in Switzerland the exciting opportunity to acquire direct practical experience with IISD’s office in Geneva.
IISD’s Geneva office has teams focused on the following main areas:
Economic Law and Policy (ELP): Our team of international lawyers, financial analysts, financial modelers, researchers, communications specialists, and policy analysts focuses on areas of international economic policy-making essential to sustainable development. These areas include investment, trade, taxation, infrastructure, public procurement, finance, agriculture, mining, and sustainability standards. Our work covers international processes ranging from negotiations at the World Trade Organization to those at the United Nations Commission on International Trade Law, as well as regional and multi-country frameworks like the African Continental Free Trade Area and the Energy Charter Treaty. Our team also provides capacity-building support, technical assistance, and other advisory services to governments. We are the host for the secretariat of the Intergovernmental Forum on Mining, Minerals, Metals and Sustainable Development and manage the Secretariat International Support Office for the China Council for International Cooperation on Environment and Development. More info.- Energy: Our team of economists, engineers, policy analysts, communications specialists and advocates provide practical guidance in two key areas. Our Global Subsidies Initiative(GSI) works to help shift public and private financial flows away from fossil fuels and into clean energy. Our sustainable energy supply and just transition teams work to help countries reduce and phase out fossil fuels in socially responsible ways that are consistent with a 1.5° limit in average global temperature increase. We do this through international processes—including the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Sustainable Development Goals and the G20—as well as long-standing programs of in-depth national work in Canada, India and Indonesia and South Africa. More info.Resilience: Our team of climate experts works with governments, civil society and communities to help them manage climate-related risks, address vulnerabilities, build adaptive capacity, and craft, implement, monitor, evaluate, and learn from their National Adaptation Plans (NAPs). They also conduct research on the nexus between nature and security, along with related work on issues at the nexus of environment, conflict, and peacebuilding. IISD is home to the newly launched Nature for Climate Adaptation Initiative, focused on gender-responsive and socially inclusive nature-based climate solutions, and also serves as the secretariat for the National Adaptation Plan Global Network, which aims to enhance national adaptation planning and action in developing countries through the development of knowledge products, the facilitation of peer learning and exchange, the provision of technical assistance, and the coordination between donors and country representatives to help ensure that bilateral programs align with a given country’s NAP priorities. More info.Communications: All of IISD’s teams with significant Geneva-based work—Economic Law and Policy, Energy, Resilience, and Communications—are engaged in ongoing communications and engagement activities targeted at policy-makers, international organizations, policy research communities, media, and the general public. Core communications activities include the development of outreach products (articles, newsletters, press releases, op-eds, infographics, and videos), the management of social media platforms, media relations and monitoring, and the development and implementation of communications plans and strategies. Depending on project needs, they may also include event management, webinars, data visualization, and the exploration of innovative communications tools.Project Management l Monitoring & Evaluation: The project managers at IISD are responsible for overseeing the smooth delivery of projects by managing the logistics, operations, budget, timeline, and scope of grant agreements; report
