NGO Management Internship Review

I spent four weeks in the summer of 2018 with EcoSwell. My role included working on a range of projects EcoSwell are involved in, such as reforestation, and waste management. As an NGO management intern, I also learnt a great deal about the running of the organisation, and how NGOs operate. I was given a high degree of autonomy over projects, such as being asked to write a grant application, and responsibility for the maintenance of a 200 tree forest nearby. EcoSwell achieve a great work-life balance, with plenty of time to surf, explore and relax. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience; everybody I lived and worked with was lovely, driven and inspirational. The location is phenomenal, the scenery stunning, the wildlife spectacular, and the experience incredible. I would thoroughly recommend an internship at EcoSwell!
