ACTIVITIES: Multiple programs for young adults, including United Nations (UN) Internships and Serving and Learning Together (SALT).

A large portion of the work the intern will complete will be learning about the methods of the UN organs, keeping up on specific world news, helping to plan the annual student seminar, and doing longer research-based projects. Year-long. Apply through the Mennonite Voluntary Service: https://www.mennonitemission.net/Serve/Mennonite%20Voluntary%20Service. Serving and Learning Together (SALT) is a year-long, cross-cultural service experience for Christian young adults from Canada and the U.S.. Volunteers serve internationally in a wide variety of positions in fields like education, agriculture, health care, information technology, peace and more. During their assignments SALTers are immersed in another culture, living with host families or communal settings such as dormitories or teacher housing in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin and Central America and the Middle East.
