Internships at the Programme Department

Are you interested in women’s rights, gender equality and international development cooperation? Do you want to gain experiences

of how development aid programmes are planned, implemented and followed up, while contributing to Kvinna till Kvinna’s work for

women’s rights and lasting peace?

Then an internship with Kvinna till Kvinna’s Programme Department at our head office in Stockholm during the spring semester 2027

could be for you.

Depending on your interests, background and the needs of the organisation, the internship may have a particular geographical focus

on one of Kvinna till Kvinna’s programme regions, including the Western Balkans, Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East or the South

Caucasus. You may also have the opportunity to contribute to work across regions.

Across the regions, our work covers thematic areas such as women’s rights and gender equality, the Women, Peace and Security

agenda, feminist movement building, gender-based violence, sexual and reproductive health and rights, women’s economic

empowerment, democracy and peacebuilding.

You are committed to gender equality and women’s rights and have a strong interest in international development, peace, human

rights or related issues. You are analytical and organised, and like to work both independently and collaboratively.

• You have completed or are currently completing at least a Bachelor’s degree, preferably in a relevant field such as

International Development, Political Science, Peace and Conflict Studies, International Relations, Human Rights, Gender Studies

or a related discipline.

• Experience working on the Women, Peace and Security agenda, countering gender-based violence, sexual and reproductive health

and rights, women’s economic empowerment or related thematic areas.

• Language skills relevant to the other regions where we work (Arabic; Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian, Ukrainian etc.) are also an

asset.

• At Kvinna till Kvinna, you will become part of an inspiring workplace with dedicated colleagues working for women’s rights and

gender equality around the world, as well as a group of interns based at the office in Stockholm.

• The internship is intended for you who are looking for an internship as part of your current studies, preferably where you

receive reimbursement from CSN, Erasmus+ or other funds, or as part of a labour integration programme supporting internships,

for instance through Arbetsförmedlingen.
