Hello all,

I have a mandatory practicum coming up in the summer of 2018. Given that I already have a BA in international relations and have studied law before, now that I am doing a BA in translation (EN/ES ->FR), I would like to do my practicum for a major human rights NGO or international organization in Europe or Latin America. Does any one know of good places that have translation departments where I could try applying?

Hello all,

I have a mandatory practicum coming up in the summer of 2018. Given that I already have a BA in international relations and have studied law before, now that I am doing a BA in translation (EN/ES ->FR), I would like to do my practicum for a major human rights NGO or international organization in Europe or Latin America. Does any one know of good places that have translation departments where I could try applying?

Unfortunately, being that I'm not a master's student, I can't apply for UN internships, and the deadline has already passed for the Interamerican court for human rights. I can't apply for the European Union parliamentary internships as I don't have EU citizenship.

Any suggestions ?

Thanks alot,

Graham ▲ Collapse

Translators Without Borders seems to be an obvious choice. I don't think they have anything much other than translation and interpreting departments .
