Internships

Completing an internship in Rwanda will leave a mark on you! It will allow you to immerse yourself in another culture, develop your personality and professional experience. During the internship you will gain important work experience in Rwanda and you can prove your flexibility. You will get an unforgettable insight into the life and traditions in Rwanda and will be warmly welcomed by your host family as a member of the family. Communication will be in English and partly in French, which will be used and improved on a daily basis. 

 

Outside of the internship, a variety of adventures await you. Explore volcanoes, watch gorillas in the wild and enjoy the first class local cuisine. We are also happy to organize a follow-up or leisure program during your stay.
