Internship description

Green Futures magazine – the leading international magazine on environmental solutions and sustainable futures – is looking for a motivated individual to volunteer with the team.

The intern would ideally work four days a week over a period of three months. The internship is unpaid, but travel and lunch expenses will be covered.

Tasks include:

  • Production support (proofreading, picture chasing)
  • Updating the Green Futures website
  • Administration
  • Research on specific forthcoming feature articles
  • Researching and writing short briefings
  • Support to expand Green Futures' readership

This is a great opportunity to gain experience of working on a magazine. That's why the people we have in mind will have:

  • An interest and knowledge in sustainable development
  • A high level of literacy and an ability to write clearly
  • An ability to carry out research with limited management
  • A willingness to pitch in with a variety of tasks within a small team
