Call for Applications

The United Nations Youth Association of Victoria (UNYA Vic) is calling
for applications for their annual Policy Internship.

If you are a student who is interested in policy formation and want to
gain valuable experience in research and report writing, then this
internship is for you! This internship
will set you apart from the rest and demonstrate your initiative and
engagement with the community.

The internship involves contributing to UNYA Vic’s annual Policy
Campaign, which has a focus on Indigenous wellbeing. The internship
will involve conducting policy research, collating data and helping to
write UNYA Victoria’s Blue Paper. Opportunities to advocate and
promote the document are also open to interns.

Interns will be required to work for 1-2 days during January and early
February and will be given formal acknowledgement of their
contribution to UNYA Vic.

Interns will be selected on the basis of familiarity with and interest
in social issues generally, research ability and experience and
willingness to engage with UNYA Vic. Neither formal research
qualifications nor specific familiarity with Indigenous issues are
required.

Applications are due at 5:00pm on Monday 30 November 2009. Please send
a letter of application and CV to .

If you have any questions or require any further information please
