Overview
Our international social work internships provide you with the perfect opportunity to make an impact whilst acquiring new skills and kickstarting your career. Through this social science internship experience, you will make a difference in a vulnerable community.
Social work internships abroad are ideal for those with backgrounds in International Relations, Psychology, or Sociology, but offer a valuable opportunity for anyone eager to connect with and impact a new community. During your internship, you'll develop skills to work with people of diverse ages, ethnicities, education levels, and socioeconomic backgrounds.
We partner with top social work organizations in our Dublin and Melbourne hubs focusing on areas like healthcare, education, and support for victims of war or domestic abuse. Past interns have worked in fields such as Community Development, Education, Healthcare & Sustainability, Social Services, Environmental Activism, and Political & Economic Development.
