This internship offers the perfect combination - interns gain valuable work experience when they embark on our multi-faceted conservation internship. The program is located in the traditional Karen elephant-keeping communities in the region of Chiang Mai. These communities play a vital role in contributing to the welfare of elephant herds and are especially known for the unique and sacred bond they share with elephants.

Interns get the opportunity to work in three different areas: community, plant diversity and animal care.

After completing the internship interns may be given the opportunity to work for GVI or selected partners. Our internships have been designed to develop interns' leadership and role model skills to put them a step ahead of the rest of the pack.
