We are accepting applications for unpaid internships, with hours available any day of the week and practically any time of day: weekdays, weekends, and evenings included. We prefer to have our local interns work in person at the office in Gloucester, and we also invite interns from all over the United States and internationally to apply. Seaside Sustainability provides interns with real and meaningful work, and internships are available in any season with flexible time schedules.Mission:&nbsp;Seaside Sustainability's mission is to preserve and protect the world's oceans, seas, wetlands, and estuaries by motivating citizens to evaluate the critical issues facing the water environment, educating the public on best practices for sustainability, and providing guidance for taking effective action. Among our most important areas of focus are the elimination of consumer plastics and the creation of educational programs for students of all ages. By partnering with diverse stakeholders, including educational institutions, environmental groups, and other organizations across the public and private sectors, Seaside Sustainability is committed to building an informed citizenry to address the sustainability of water-based ecosystems in communities around the world.

En Côte d’Ivoire, l’EUMC soutient les jeunes, en particulier les jeunes femmes, autour de deux thèmes : l’entrepreneuriat des jeunes et l’égalité des sexes, par le biais du projet IGNI+E. IGNI+E est un programme canadien de coopération volontaire internationale et de développement de premier plan, mis en œuvre par l’EUMC. Il est mis en œuvre grâce à la générosité des Canadien·nes et au soutien financier du gouvernement du Canada, par l’intermédiaire d’Affaires mondiales Canada.<h2>Description du partenaire</h2>Créer par arrêté du gouverneur Général en date du 23 décembre 1908 à Grand-Bassam, la Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie de Côte d’Ivoire est un organisme chargé de représenter les intérêts des entreprises commerciales, industrielles et de services, d’assurer la formation des entrepreneurs et d’apporter un appui aux entreprises. Le 17 mai 1963, les Chambres d’industrie et les Chambres d’agriculture sont organisées séparément par décret. Toutefois, la forte imbrication entre l’industrie et le commerce amène, le 8 janvier 1992, le gouvernement ivoirien à regrouper ces activités dans une même chambre placée sous la tutelle du ministère du commerce et de l’industrie. Interface entre les pouvoirs publics et le secteur privé, la Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie de Côte d’Ivoire est une institution d’appui aux entreprises.<h2>Paquet de soutien</h2><ul><li>Soutien et conseils de l’équipe de l’EUMC avant l’affectation et de l’équipe de l’EUMC dans le pays pendant l’affectation.</li><li>Formation avant l’affectation pour en apprendre davantage sur le programme de volontariat pour le développement, acquérir des compétences pratiques pour vivre et travailler dans un contexte interculturel et établir un réseau avec d’autres volontaires.</li><li>Orientation dans le pays d’affectation de l’EUMC</li><li>Formation linguistique dans le pays d’affectation, si nécessaire</li><li>Allocation de subsistance mensuelle modeste</li><li>Billet d’avion à destination et en provenance du pays d’affectation</li><li>Visa/Permis de travail</li><li>Examen médical avant l’affectation</li><li>Assurance maladie</li><li>Vaccinations et médicaments antipaludiques</li><li>Vérification du casier judiciaire</li><li>Droit aux congés annuels</li><li>Bilan à la fin de l’affectation</li><li>Une opportunité incroyable d’apporter une contribution significative au développement mondial, d’améliorer vos compétences professionnelles et de participer à une expérience unique!</li></ul>
