Bachelor's degree in audiovisual media
Head to southern Africa, to Cape Town or the Kingdom of Eswatini, for a humanitarian NGO internship by joining a team of professionals.
Contribute to various community projects by sharing your knowledge and gain hands-on experience, fully immersed in South African culture. Your many interactions with locals, professionals, fellow interns, and the on-site team will make this experience even more enriching for you.
Looking for something to make you stand out? This humanitarian NGO internship will allow you to work in an international setting while helping us carry out community development activities in South Africa.
This internship will take you either to the vibrant city of Cape Town (Hout Bay) or to the mountainous kingdom of Eswatini to work with our team in creating photos and videos for marketing or fundraising purposes.
Whether you’re looking to gain experience to enhance your resume, we strive to make this humanitarian NGO internship as beneficial as possible. That’s why we want to know in advance if you have a specific interest, experience, or goals you’d like to achieve during your internship.
As with all our humanitarian internship programs, the project in South Africa allows you to validate your academic year while making a positive and lasting impact on the local community.
An intern, although also unpaid, differs from a gap year volunteer, as they are expected to bring specific knowledge and/or experience to the field in which they work. Internship positions are more limited and more competitive. Interns will work at a more career-oriented strategic level and help build local capacity to work effectively and meaningfully.
Interns are also expected to take on more responsibilities and to create their own goals and activities to join or lead. A mentor will also be assigned to guide them throughout the humanitarian NGO internship.
Upon arrival, our team will help interns get started with their placement. Our interns have a wealth of expertise to offer, but all goals must be set with the local partner to ensure sustainable outcomes even after the intern returns home.
You will help build a library of photos and videos for marketing and/or fundraising needs. Your photos and videos will be used on our website, social media pages, and other marketing materials.
By signing up with us, you donate your time and skills to work directly with communities in need through a structured project.
You will also benefit from supervision, a safe place to stay, logistical support, and clear expectations about your work. That’s why we charge a fee for the internship abroad.
