I'm hunting for something good to do between May-September 2009 in London before school starts. My criteria:
-An international humanitarian/human rights organization
-A place where my skills and experience in political philosophy and activism will be useful to the cause/organization
-A place where I'll be challenged (not work I've done before)
-Paid, or at least fed and sheltered.
-Faith-based would be nice, but not necessary. You know I love Jesuit education.
For now, the International Justice Mission internship looks perfect, if I can just get the dates and the funding.
IJM is a human rights organisation that rescues victims of violence, sexual exploitation, slavery and oppression. IJM criminal investigators, lawyers and aftercare psychologists document cases of abuses and mobilise intervention on behalf of those who are suffering. Cases range from sex trafficking to bonded slavery.
If anyone knows of any other organizations/grants that would work, let me know! Thanks, team!
