Preston Whitt, a recent graduate of the UHP, works for the Open Government Partnership. His department, the Independent Reporting Mechanism, partners with national researchers to author annual reports on how well participating countries met their goals to make government more open.
They are currently looking for a Spring intern to work part-time (20 hours/week) for a monthly stipend of $640. The intern would be primarily assisting in the editorial process for around 35 country reports, with very little time left over for administration.
If you think a paid, substantive internship with an international organization working to make government transparent, improve accountability, promote citizen participation, and use technology for all three sounds interesting, send a resume to irm {at} opengovpartnership.org.
Please note: only seniors or outstanding juniors will be considered.
