World Wildlife Fund (WWF)

Small public bus in Jakarta.WWF are happy to receive interns of any skill level. You will have the opportunity to learn a great deal about environmental issues in Indonesia. Students should endeavour to familiarise themselves with major environmental issues in Indonesia (forestry, marine habitats, and particularly species conservation) as WWF runs various programs in these areas. It goes without saying that candidates should strongly familiarise themselves with the WWF's philosophy and place within the environment movement. Students will be advised on what major campaigns WWF is planning at the time of the internship. The WWF position provides students with the opportunity to have feature pieces or press releases published. The time is available to research plenty of stories but getting them all published is not guaranteed. You will work both individually and as part of a team.
