About United World Schools

United World Schools (UWS) is a charity dedicated to transforming the lives of some of the world's poorest children through education. It works in remote regions of Cambodia, Myanmar and Nepal to give every child access to free education, partnering with local communities and supporters around the world to ‘teach the unreached’.

UWS has a high-impact, low-cost model for building schools and providing education in remote and marginalised communities. To date, it has worked with more than 220 communities across Cambodia, Myanmar and Nepal to give children free, safe and effective schooling. Since 2009, it has reached over 36,000 children with education, and is set to reach tens of thousands more over the next few years.

UWS' purpose is to get such children into primary level education to teach them to read, write and count, and impart basic skills to allow them to participate in their local economies. It achieves this goal through the building of simple and fit-for-purpose schools in these remote communities. It also commits to managing the running of these schools to ensure ongoing access by these children to education. Collaboration is at the heart of everything that UWS does. It works with communities, governments and partners to deliver free education that is effective and sustainable.

This is an exceptional opportunity to help shape and lead the continued development and direction of a fast-growing, business-like charity. The organisation is looking to expand its reach internationally to serve children in remote communities who do not have the opportunity to attend primary school and therefore do not learn the basics of literacy and numeracy.

UWS-USA Internship

UWS-USA is recruiting fall and spring interns interested in learning about and supporting the full spectrum of an NGO growth-cycle.

Expand

United World Schools is quickly becoming the preeminent NGO focused on teaching the unreached in the world's most remote communities. With a model pioneered in Nepal, Cambodia, and Myanmar over ten years and across more than 220 UWS-built primary schools, UWS has proven its ability to build and operate scalable, high-functioning, and inexpensive schools anywhere there is a need. Looking forward to its next ten years, UWS is aggressively planning for exponential growth and impact across the globe.

To meet the next phase of UWS' global growth plans, the organization launched United World Schools- USA in early 2020.

UWS interns are thus drawn from backgrounds ranging from global educations interests, to wider development and development economics interests, to child welfare and other related interests.

Successful candidates will be exposed to a wide-range of tasks, from researching new countries and markets for UWS to implement its school-building model; to raising awareness across the United States for UWS’ mission through online and traditional media; to supporting funding and resource development; to working with UWS’ US-based partner school network; to reviewing and advising on evaluation and outcome measurements.

Because UWS-USA is backed UWS, interns will experience both the pace and energy of a startup along with the solid footing and security that comes within a well-established and globally recognized NGO.

Fall and Spring Program

During the fall and spring semesters, internships are part-time and paid a $500 stipend. Applicants must currently be enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program. Fall and spring internship hours are flexible, allowing students to gain valuable experience while maintaining their regular class schedules.

Application process

Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until qualified candidates have been identified. Please do not send multiple submissions. Incomplete applications will not be considered. Due to the number of applications received, we are unable to contact those who have not been selected for an internship. No phone calls, please.
