I am a Global Studies major, and included in the program requirements is an international internship. I need to do an internship of some kind this summer, and have been researching some options.
One organization is a non-profit, based in India, and is fairly new. The idea is working with women in the smaller towns and communities to help them learn to make goods that can then be marketed at fair wage prices in the global community. It would be an awesome opportunity to learn in a new environment, a great way to really do some work.
Another organization is one based out of Florida that focuses on creating awareness about self harming, depression and suicide. It is an organization that is so full of heart that the writings coming out of it make me cry regularly. It is so creative and in tune with the artistic community that artists all over the world are coming together to help support it. It would be a really good fit for my skills and personality, and an awesome opportunity for contacts.
A last opportunity would be to work in South America, with a program that ASU puts together for their students. It is structured, and there are opportunities for learning about architecture, history, and more Espanol. (And LOTS of photography!)
This is going to be a hard decision for me, but I am so thankful for the choice.
It’s a pretty good time in my life right now.
