Summer Internship in New York City


Do you have web design skills?


The MCC United Nations Liaison Office is offering one unpaid internship this summer for interested and qualified college and university students with a background in Peace Studies, International Studies, Political Science, International Development, Communications or other related fields along with interest and capability of web page development for the office.


Applicants must be available to work for a minimum of 4 weeks, maintaining an average of 40 work hours per week between July 12 and August 17, 2011.  Lodging at Menno House in Manhattan can be provided, but interns are required all other expenses including food and transportation.  


This year the intern will primarily be working to develop the MCC UN Office webpage, but there will also be time for the intern to study and research issues pertaining to his or her personal academic interests.  The intern may also assist the Director and Program Associate of the Mennonite Central Committee United Nations Liaison Office in coordinating MCC’s advocacy at the UN by researching topics of relevance to the office’s work.

The intern should be independent, motivated, flexible, and possess excellent computer web page design interest and competency.


Interested applicants should complete this form 
and return it via e-mail to the MCC UN Liaison Office (unoffice2@mcc.org).  The deadline for applications is Friday, April 15, 2011. Interviews will be conducted with a limited number of candidates by phone during the two weeks following the application deadline.  The successful applicant will be notified of his or her acceptance by Friday, April 29, 2011.
