"I had a very positive experience at GPF. My internship challenged my assumptions and stimulated my creativity. I learned many new skills that I will surely apply in my academic, professional, and personal lives."

Sarah Khan, B.A. candidate, Columbia University

"My GPF internship was a dynamic learning experience (and great fun too!) The team of qualified, passionate people from all over the world made for a stimulating work environment. There were also many opportunities to experience the policymaking process firsthand and to engage with academics, practitioners and UN officials through GPF's intern luncheon series."

Nadia Humayun, B.A. (Hons) candidate, Queen's University

"Working at Global Policy Forum has been an incredible experience! There is no better place to learn about the UN and international policy-making processes. I left GPF so much more aware of global issues and made a lot of great friends along the way."

"GPF shows faith in you and your abilities by trusting you with great responsibility. I took ownership of my portfolios; and researched and analyzed the concerned issues in detail. It was a tremendous learning experience for me. With this internship program, the interns and GPF bloom together."

“My internship at GPF has been a formative life experience. I have learnt about how the UN and the NGO community operate, and how they interact. The people I met and the things I did during my time at GPF helped me understand what I want to do with my life, and how I can achieve my goals. I will be entering my MA – and everything that comes after – with a much stronger sense of purpose and focus then I had before.”

Tobias Schiedermair, M.Sc. candidate, London School of Economics

"Interns work independently on current political issues while gaining first-class insights into the NGO community as well as the UN system. GPF is an awesome experience."

Peter Jenkins, B.A. University of California Santa Cruz

"My internship at GPF was an extremely valuable experience - I can't imagine anything better!"

"Interning at GPF has been one of my best experiences! Not only have I learned useful web skills, but I have also gained a priceless 'insider' perspective on the workings of the UN, NGOs and their relationship."

Kiya Bajpai, B.A., Duke University

"The time I spent at Global Policy Forum more than exceeded my expectations. I have learned more than I ever did in academia and really found what I want to do for the rest of my life."
