About
Join a team of international interns and contribute to sustainable and long-term women’s empowerment initiatives in Nepal.
Description:
Gain experience in international sustainable development. Start your career in international sustainable development by completing an internship in Nepal with GVI. This internship is specifically suited for those with a background or interest in gender studies. Some of the projects we run in the area include literacy, numeracy, and life skills workshops for girls at a local school as well as professional skills development classes with local women. We also run conversational English classes for local women. Not only do these classes provide for a local need, the women are very keen to become proficient in English, but the classes also create a space where women can develop their own social support structure. We also run women’s health workshops featuring topics like prenatal health and child health. In addition, we work with the women of SASANE, an anti-human trafficking organisation to spread awareness about the prevalence of this practice, thereby helping communities develop more resilience's.
