Summer is one of the most convenient times to intern abroad. For students with busy schedules during the school year, the summer break is a fantastic time to slow down, enjoy the vistas of a beautiful country and work towards your education or career. A World Endeavors Summer Internship helps students gain valuable work experience in a refreshing global environment.
Use your vacation, gap year, or summer break to volunteer abroad, give back to communities in need, and experience beautiful locations around the world.
World Endeavors volunteer programs are now operated by our sister company, Kaya Responsible Travel. If you’re interested in a volunteer project we encourage you to visit the Kaya Responsible Travel website and apply to a program there.
If you are a student of the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, please visit our page that displays all available volunteer programs exclusively for UCSC students.
Interning abroad with World Endeavors is a way to get experience and an international perspective on a potential career field, all while having the adventure of living abroad. Much more than a summer job, an internship offers the chance to learn new skills and acquire a depth of experience that participants can carry into the next semester’s studies or into a job search.
