Great opportunities at the FAO

Do you thrive in an environment that is truly international and multi-cultural, which respects as well as promotes diversity and functions at its best through the efforts of teams of different people? Are you willing to learn more about the mission of FAO’s work? Do you want to make a difference? If so, consider the FAO’s „Global Internship, Volunteer and Fellows” programme.

Internship Programme

The Internship Programme is a learning opportunity aimed at attracting talented young women and men who are strongly motivated to share their new perspectives, innovative ideas and latest research experience in FAO’s domains.

The Internship Programme provides selected students, enrolled in an undergraduate or post-graduate degree programme or recent graduates, with the opportunity to supplement their academic knowledge with a practical work experience in a field related to the work of FAO. It will enable them to gain a better understanding of FAO’s mandate and programmes. At the same time, the Programme provides FAO with the assistance of qualified individuals specializing in relevant fields in connection to FAO Strategic Objectives and to UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Volunteer Programme

FAO Regular Volunteer Programme provides opportunities for individuals to contribute their volunteer actions, where suitable, to support the work of FAO in connection to FAO Strategic Objectives and UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The Programme proactively and strategically mobilizes broad-based volunteer services of citizens of FAO Member Nations, especially from the Global South, to contribute to ending hunger, malnutrition and food insecurity.

Fellows Programme

The Fellows Programme is designed to attract fellows, typically PhD students, researchers and professors, who have an advanced level of relevant technical knowledge and experience in any field of the Organization.  They are willing to fulfil their specialized learning objectives and at the same time, contribute their technical expertise and knowledge through time-bound arrangements with FAO.  Assignments should be in line with FAO Strategic Objectives and UN Sustainable Development Goals.
