About World Vision Internship
Program:
The graduate trainees will form a pool from which future entry
level positions in general management and programme management can be
recruited. The internship program will also provide WVU with quality candidates
for temporary or seasonal positions and projects.
Some of the Internship Benefits
Include:
- Provide room for innovation by allowing interns bring new perspectives to issues and challenges that could be affecting World Vision Uganda.
- Enhance visibility of WVU in both the communities where we work and at Universities where Interns shall be recruited. If an Intern gets an interesting and rewarding experience in learning and contributing to Child Wellbeing through World Vision, they’re likely to recommend resourceful people/agencies and initiatives to WV.
- Build a pool of Christian development professionals for the humanitarian industry. Not all interns would be absorbed into World Vision Uganda upon completion of the training; world vision would have contributed towards enhancing their employability. WV will therefore be contributing towards build a well-qualified workforce for the local humanitarian industry.
- Enhance youth employability by providing young qualified graduates with work experience in various sectors such as WASH, Agriculture and Food Security, Health etc within the humanitarian industry
- Providing a flexible and very cost effective workforce especially in scenarios where long term commitment is not required.
- Promoting our social responsibility in having qualified members in our community participating in development work.
- Enhanced visibility of WVU in both the communities where we work and at Universities where
