Internships in Johannesburg, South Africa

Join interns from all over the world on an IGS internship in various locations abroad, from Sydney to Dublin! We have a long history of collaborating with radio stations to offer students the chance to be on air or deal with hands-on tasks. Our Radio Broadcasting internships are a great way to immerse yourself into local cultures while building professional skills. We work with both traditional and nontraditional stations, with some independent stations featuring local artists and under-represented communities. As such, there is a real opportunity to learn about the challenges people face through the lyrics of their songs. As an intern, your duties typically involve: On-air work Editing Writing Calling businesses Conducting interviews Event planning Photography Social media

The animals at this wildlife sanctuary have been injured or orphaned, leaving them in need of some assistance if they have any hope for survival. The animals become tame during their rehabilitation so they cannot be reintroduced to the wild, but this does allow for an unforgettable experience since volunteers can work closely with the animals and establish relationships. The sanctuary provides aid to zebras, cheetahs, elephants, and many more animals in need. The program starts monthly, and volunteers can stay from 2 to 12 weeks. This allows for flexibility and duration that can fit into anyone’s schedule. The sanctuary is located near the small resort town of Hartbeespoort, locally known as Harties, which is only 40 minutes from the giant metropolis of Johannesburg. Volunteers can experience a little of each place through actually living inside the sanctuary and Johannesburg in their free time. Volunteers can work in a variety of interesting projects such as vulture kitchen, which provides vultures with a healthy supply of meat. The birds are endangered because many people poison them with bad meat.
