Development internship
For our 'development' programme, we are looking - in collaboration with Building Change - for 1 intern to work mainly on our lobbying and advocacy activities. Current intern Dorine says this about her internship at the FMS:
The Building Change work of this internship is very instructive and interesting! You are close to politics, and participate in the lobbying process towards politicians, especially on Dutch policies that affect developing countries, such as legislation around tax evasion and avoidance, but also climate policy. Your responsibility is to actively keep track of the political calendar: What are interesting topics that we can do something with? What I really like about the internship is that you then also actively participate in the lobbying process: You get to write lobby letters and (news) articles and make sure the social media are kept up to date. Now that a coalition agreement will hopefully appear in a few months' time, this internship will be even more relevant to you: all the issues will then be discussed in the committees again, giving us more opportunity to exert influence. If you want to be close to the political process and be part of a very nice, open and inspiring working environment, apply for this internship!
Will you be our new trainee 'development'? Then send your cover letter + CV by 5 January 2022 to Anne van der Meer, avdmeer@foundationmaxvanderstoel.nl. You can find the entire job posting here.
