Role:
Crisis Group publishes around 90 reports and briefings annually, and some 60 full translations (English, French, Spanish, Arabic and other languages).
We are seeking an intern to work at the Brussels headquarters for six months starting mid-February 2013, working on Crisis Group's publications. Responsibilities will include the formatting, publication and dissemination of Crisis Group reports and briefings; updating the website; working with our 25 field and advocacy offices on publication issues and providing general administrative support.
The internship will suite a broad range of candidates, including those with interests and experience in some combination of the following: international relations, conflict studies, print and online publication.
Though administrative tasks form a part of the internship, there are opportunities to take part in staff briefings and our staff development program – and familiarising oneself with other departments in Brussels, as well as with Crisis Group staff around the world.
Requirements:
If you wish to apply please send your CV and cover letter to intern.vacancies@crisisgroup.org clearly stating "Publications intern" in the subject line.
Applications will be reviewed and interviews conducted on a rolling basis to identify appropriate candidates as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, due to the large number of applications that we receive, we are unable to respond to each individual candidate.
Please note that our internships are unpaid, although a small stipend for lunch and transport is provided.
