Apply for The Future Africa Internship Program for Young Africans

The Future Africa Internship program will allow young Africans with less than two years of work experience to intern for a minimum period of three months in their prospective area of expertise.

The program will provide stipends to encourage the interns to perform their roles to the host organisation. FAIP is our response to a critical need of young Africans – career path decision.

Once accepted, prospective interns will undergo a capacity-building program on workplace and FAIP values: this equips them with the right mindset to deliver value for their host organisation.
