You can do this program if you are a student with a drive to tackle social or environmental issues, seeking to build international networks through hands-on experience. On our Impact Internship program you can expect to be treated like a full-time entry-level team member, working in high-impact projects while gaining first-hand exposure to social entrepreneurship and opportunities for scale, sustainability, impactful business models and much more.
To join our Impact Internship Programs, you will need the International Co-op work permit. Check if you’re eligible to apply.
Start the process at least six months before your desired start date as the visa process can take up to two months, but we need time to find you the best internship placement to apply for your internship visa!
