Protecting and promoting human rights throughout the world can be a life-changing experience as you are personally involved in helping to generate social change. Engaging in a human rights internship - whether it is a local, national, or international placement - gives you the opportunity to learn about other peoples, cultures and current human rights issues while being engaged in the process of social transformation. Even more important, your internship may help you in more clearly determining where your educational and professional future will lead.
