Programme Description
The International Internship Programme for Students (IIPS) is an avenue for qualified and motivated university students to gain valuable work experience with UN agencies around the world.
These internship opportunities are professional journeys lasting from 4 to 12 months with a UN office as a Junior Professional Consultant (JPC).
UNA-Canada negotiates meaningful, SDG-focused positions with United Nations agencies, providing applicants with valuable, demanding, and meaningful work experience in a field relevant to their studies and/or career aspirations. JPCs are recruited, trained, and supported throughout their internships.
