Microcredit Summit Campaign is looking to hire four interns for the Spring term

The Microcredit Summit Campaign seeks four (4) interns for the Winter/Spring semester:

1. One (1) intern to support the “Seal of Excellence for Poverty Outreach and Transformation in Microfinance”, a global initiative led by the Campaign, as well as to assist with administrative tasks, communications, and basic research. See internship description and requirements.

2. One (1) intern to support the Campaign’s communications strategy and member engagement using social media and other platforms, as well as to assist with administrative tasks and basic research. See internship description and requirements.

3. Two (2) interns to support the State of the Campaign Report team, assisting with data collection and other outreach to supporters and member institutions, as well as with administrative tasks, communications, and basic research. See internship description and requirements.

The Microcredit Summit Campaign believes that students who complete an internship with our organization should come out of it with a more nuanced understanding of the sector, particularly who are the actors, what are the challenges and exciting innovations, and how the sector is evolving to better serve the interest of the poorest. Our staff work closely with interns as part of a close-knit team, exposing them to the inner-workings of a development organization and teaching them about the various issues that concern microfinance practitioners, such as client protection, social performance, health integration, gender empowerment, etc. Additionally, interns will have unique opportunities to interact directly with major actors in microfinance as well as to attend learning events and seminars in the DC area.
