What do Interns Do?

Interns will be assigned to plan and manage one or two projects during their internship period. The types of projects interns get to work on are diverse and vary according to specific interests and skills of each person. Each project will fall under one of our three main thrusts which are Education, Advocacy, and Culture.

Education: Our education program are designed to equip a person, of any age, the tools to promote and defend the dignity of the person. A variety of educational programs opportunities is offered to interns to develop a deeper understanding of the meaning of human dignity as well as a greater commitment to defending and promoting this essential truth. Ultimately, the desired educational outcome is the formation of individuals who embrace a worldview that situates the worth of every person at the center and whose lives reflect this understanding and commitment.

Advocacy: World Youth Alliance actively participates at the United Nations, European Union, and other regional/national governments institutions by offering language proposals, sharing grassroots experiences and working one-on-one with delegates to develop person-centered policies.

Culture: The organization provides interns with the opportunity to encounter and experience the dignity of the human person. Participation in the arts and culture nurtures all dimensions of the human person – physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual – and in this way promotes the integral development of the individual, contributing to the authentic development of society.

Administrative Work: Interns will also be assigned to do administrative work at the WYA North America office. They may be asked to do database management, writing business letters, filing documents, managing WYA North America’s online accounts, and creating marketing materials.
