Who can apply?
- Applicants must be enrolled in a recognized undergraduate or graduate program and have attended classes in the previous 12 months, or qualify through WFP's recent-graduate route.
- At least two years of undergraduate study must be complete, and fluent English is required. Additional official or duty-station languages can strengthen or be required for a vacancy.
- The individual opening controls degree relevance, location, schedule, authorization and technical qualifications. The global program rule is only the starting point.
The headline benefit package is program-level guidance, not a promise that every expense is covered. Read the vacancy and written offer for the stipend rate, travel eligibility and duty-station costs.

Our editorial advice · not employer requirements
How to prepare a stronger application
Show one example of using evidence under a real constraint: allocating resources, cleaning data, planning an operation or communicating an urgent issue. State which part you owned and which assumptions remain.
Read the selected office's public work and prepare a respectful question about how interns support existing local expertise. Avoid framing humanitarian work as personal adventure or access to vulnerable people.
