About this opportunity

The WTO Internship Programme gives postgraduate students and recent advanced-degree graduates professional experience in international trade and WTO operations. Assignments may involve trade policy, economics, law, statistics, communications, administration and specialist Secretariat functions.

Benefits
Interns receive CHF 60 per day, including weekends and official holidays occurring during the internship, for placements lasting up to six months. Travel to and from Geneva is not funded by the standard programme, and interns must maintain health insurance meeting Swiss requirements.

Requirements
Applicants must complete the WTO online candidate profile and provide education, qualifications and professional information demonstrating academic preparation relevant to WTO work. Individual divisions may seek additional specialist skills.

How to apply
Create a profile on the WTO external jobs platform and submit an application for the WTO Internship Programme. Suitable applications are maintained on the internship roster for one year and candidates may be selected throughout the year.

Find scholarships, postgraduate study and internships

Explore opportunities from Uganda and abroad. Location describes where an opportunity is based; check the official eligibility rules to confirm whether Ugandan, African or other international applicants can apply.

Fully funded scholarships in Canada, the USA and Europe

Compare undergraduate, master's and PhD awards by eligible nationality, subject and funding coverage. A tuition waiver does not necessarily cover living costs, insurance or travel. For medical study, confirm the exact degree and whether clinical training is included. High school awards have different age and admission requirements from university scholarships.

For US universities offering full scholarships, check the university's international admissions and financial aid pages. Confirm whether admission and funding require separate applications, and whether support is renewable each year.

Paid internships abroad and online internships

For internships in Europe or elsewhere, check nationality and enrolment requirements, the stipend, accommodation and travel coverage. Paid does not necessarily mean fully funded. Remote internships may still restrict the countries where participants can work. To intern abroad without programme fees, compare direct employer applications and check which costs you must pay yourself.

For summer placements, verify the start date and application year in the official call. Search the listings for a provider or subject, such as Expedia, EU delegation traineeships or agriculture in Germany, and confirm availability with that organisation.

NGO jobs, entry-level jobs and internships in Uganda

Check the posting date, closing date, duty station and required experience. For jobs with no experience, look for an explicit entry-level or graduate requirement; an urgent vacancy may still require experience. Verify American Embassy vacancies through the embassy's official recruitment service and New Vision vacancies against the original employer notice.

Application years and named scholarship programmes

Use the intake and deadline in each listing when comparing 2026 and 2027 opportunities. A 2022 notice is historical unless the provider has published a new call. Before applying to Yale Young African Scholars or an opportunity described as a UNICEF scholarship, verify the programme name, funding and current eligibility directly with the organisation. A search phrase alone does not confirm an available award.
