Paso Adelante

Based in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala, Paso Adelante's internship program is designed for students and young professionals seeking to enter international development in Latin America.

Interns first go through an intensive Spanish-learning program for 6 weeks before relocating to a community outside of Quetzaltenango to work on their project-based internship for approximately 1.5 months. The goal is to train interns and provide them the necessary project management experience to advance their career in Latin America.

We are currently working with several communities around Xela to execute projects in the areas of civil engineering, waste management, ecotourism, commercialization and biology. For a more detailed description of our projects please visit our webpage: www.pasoadelante.org
