The UNESCO Internship Programme offers you practical work in a multicultural environment. Aside from helping you understand the Organization’s mandate, programmes and main thrusts, it also enhances your academic knowledge with relevant work assignments that can help you prepare for your future career. With its Headquarters based in Paris (France) and 53 Field Offices and Institutes worldwide, UNESCO counts over 2200 staff from diverse and multicultural backgrounds from our 193 Member States working to advance the objectives of UNESCO’s mission and programmes.

Even if you are eligible, there is no guarantee of placement. We receive more applications from qualified candidates than we can place.
Your application will be further accessed by UNESCO mangers around the world and will stay in our internship portal for a period of six months.
We do not respond to each and every candidate. If selected, you will be directly contacted by the manager. If you do not receive any update within six months, it means that your application has not been successful.
