Position:<\/strong><\/em> Internship Opportunities
Posted by:<\/strong> Ashinaga
Location:<\/strong> Tokyo, Japan
Contract:<\/strong> Full-Time<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are internships passed along to us directly from Ashinaga:  <\/p>\n\n\n

The Ashinaga Internship Program began in 2013 as an English teaching program for students in Japan and Uganda, which enabled interns to acquire the problem-solving skills and adaptability needed in multicultural environments.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Since then, our program has grown to encompass a variety of departments and functions. Interns now have the ability to choose between a number of different fields within the organization and we hope that by tapping the minds of intellectuals from all over the world we\u2019ll be able to turn Ashinaga into an all-embracing, international NGO. To date we have had interns from over 50 global universities in several dozen countries.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
We invite you to join us on our journey!<\/div>\n

Ashinaga Japan Internships<\/strong><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Japan-based interns work a variety of different teams at our HQ in Tokyo or our Tokyo or Kobe Kokoro-juku dormitories. Interns work five times a week and are guided through their projects by a dedicated team supervisor, simultaneously gaining transferable skills and an insight into working at an international NGO.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
Interns live in the Tokyo Kokoro-Juku or Kobe Kokoro-Juku dormitories, where they can see the real-world impact their work has whilst fostering invaluable relationships with Ashinaga scholars from Japan and sub-Saharan Africa.<\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
In addition to general team-based projects, interns will participate in our Tohoku Program. This program will allow interns to visit our Sendai Rainbow House facility, tour areas affected by the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami, hear testimonials from those affected, and see the reconstruction efforts in the region first-hand.<\/div>\n
