Jerusalem Fund Summer Internship

The Jerusalem Fund for Education and Community Development offers summer internship positions with its educational program, the Palestine Center, for undergraduate students.

The internship program provides students with an opportunity to conduct primary-source research, develop writing and organizational skills, build valuable Washington contacts, gain hands-on experience and observe the extensive political and policy-related happenings in Washington. As important members of the team, interns gain valuable exposure to the functions of a highly productive non-profit organization working on issues of national and international significance.

Summer interns coordinate a summer lecture series, write an in-depth information brief on a topic related to the Palestine issue and assist with Palestine Center briefings, film screenings, and symposia. Interns are encouraged to attend relevant events in the area during their internship and to pursue avenues of research that are of personal interest, provided the research relates to the work of the Center. The Palestine Center staff provides guidance on research and logistics, helps to educate interns on the Palestinian issue and advises them as needed on career development.

Deadline to apply for 2010 Summer Internship is Friday, 16 April 2010
