Internship program

Three to six months inside a working human-rights organization — real responsibility, real mentorship, real impact.

The program

Learn by doing work that matters

RNL interns don’t fetch coffee. You’ll draft briefings that reach parliaments, help coordinate relief logistics, produce media that tells our story, or support research used in international courts — depending on your track.

Each intern works with a mentor, joins weekly all-team calls, and finishes with a portfolio piece, a reference letter, and — for outstanding interns — a pathway to staff and coordinator roles.
