By the People: March-April Venture-based Internship
E-mail me (ianfroude@ewb.ca) to apply by February 21st.
The Venture:
I am leading a venture at EWB Canada that is aiming to change the way international policy, including international development policy, is developed in Canada. The change I am seeking is that our international policy is developed collaboratively between government, civil society, academia, the private sector, and citizens. Only through a collaborative approach to policy development and implementation will we actually contribute to the resolution of some of the most difficult challenges facing the world.
I am looking for a person interested in helping accelerate the venture over the months of March and April. My hope is that the candidate will have experience in the following areas:
- Interest in and understanding of the federal government, policy development, and international issues
- Event Planning - We will be organizing several presentations, a possible evening event, and a full-day seminar/meeting with a small group here in Ottawa.
- Interested in the role of citizens in foreign policy development and on how to create a more collaborative environment for policy development.
Location: I am based in Ottawa and the events will be located here. It is ideal if the candidates are located in Ottawa but there is some flexbility within the Toronto to Montreal corridor.
Time Period: March and April 2013 (with flexibility on beginning and end dates, +/- two weeks)
Compensation: Remuneration is in the form of a living stipend (non-taxable benefit) of $200/week. You also have the option of living in EWB-provided accommodation in downtown Toronto (see location information above); if in Toronto, rent at the EWB house will be covered byEWB.
To apply, simply get in touch with me at ianfroude@ewb.ca by February 21st.
In your e-mail please share your experience, and your interest in this work.
