Internship at CRISP - Conflict Simulation

We are regularly looking for highly motivated interns to support our team. The intern should already have some experience in project management while possessing a strong interest in international cooperation.
By offering an internship we hope to give young professionals or students the possibility of gaining deeper insight into the work of an international NGO. The intern will be encouraged to apply her/his knowledge on a practical level.
Therefore we seek an individual that is capable of close cooperation with the team, who can integrate easily into the daily operational procedures and the planning of ongoing and new projects.
There are plenty of different tasks within CRISP. What we offer is a position with significant responsibility, and which is, to a certain extent, adaptable to the intern’s personal interests and skills.
