The Borgen Project is an international organization that works at the political level to improve living conditions for people impacted by war, famine and poverty.
With 20 years of experience in the advocacy space, The Borgen Project has worked to support the passage of numerous bills that have benefitted close to 500 million people in developing countries.
While the hiring process is incredibly competitive, we look for a diverse range of backgrounds. We’ve found no correlation between high GPA’s, MBA’s and/or prestigious universities when it comes to determining who will have the biggest impact for the world’s poor. Our selection process focuses on finding great individuals, with a strong work ethic and passion for righting wrongs.
Our remote internships are work from home roles, weekly deadlines must be met, meetings will be held online and a weekly update of your progress submitted.
All positions are unpaid, but we work with schools to ensure college credit is available, if applicable.
We respond to every application, reply to all queries and always notify you of the outcome of our interviews.
