Join Intern Abroad HQ, the world’s most affordable international internship organization, and invest in your future with an NGO Support Internship in Spain.

NGO Support internships in Valencia, Spain provide a unique opportunity to collaborate alongside passionate NGO and non profit groups in the defense, promotion and protection of human rights. Interns gain hands-on experience with projects aimed at fostering and promoting the dignity and rights of all people, across a broad range of socioeconomic groups.

High School graduates aged 18+ may be accepted, depending on the strength of their application (including any relevant experience, with a desire to learn and grow within this field).
