The Project:
Volunteer abroad in Nepal and discover a land of infinite stories and spectacular photographic opportunities. By joining our journalism internship in Kathmandu, you will be tutored by a working professional journalist and get involved with an English language media outlet specializing in print media, photojournalism, radio or television. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to get your voice heard and produce your own story through the form of moving documentary, still image or published article. If you are interested in combining this project with another one of our volunteering options in Nepal, we can organise extra part time placements for volunteers when they arrive in Nepal. Volunteers can go from 4 - 12 weeks.
Why it needs you:
International volunteers can bring a unique outward perspective on local issues and news that is being documented in the present day Nepal. Whether your passion is the written word, investigative journalism, shooting documentaries or conveying your message through live media, you will have the chance to learn from experts in the field, while bringing your own experience and outlook on Nepal to the mix. As you will be working for an English speaking media company, your English skills will also prove beneficial to the local staff.
Where?
The capital of Nepal, and the countries only major city, Kathmandu is a fascinating place. Set in the Kathmandu Valley, with the Himalayas rising to the north and the gentler slopes of the Mahabharat Range to the south, Kathmandu is in places as crowded, dirty and bustling as virtually any developing world city. Other areas are architecturally stunning and home to numerous notable Hindi and Buddhist temples and ancient buildings.
