Summary
Over the past four years, Democracy onAir has been working with over 50 interns majoring in government, global affairs, communications, and the information sciences to develop the US Democracy onAir network of 50 state governance and elections hubs. The US Democracy Network serves as a model network for other countries. Former interns are now working on creating networks for other countries such as the India Democracy Network.
Student interns will be supported by our Democracy onAir team if they choose to integrate their internship with courses for credit, class projects, capstone projects, and research work. Most work is done online and unpaid. Some of our recent interns have continued working with Democracy onAir in management positions.
The internship is intended to be a learning experience as much as it is a work experience. Inter will deepen their knowledge of democratic processes especially as it relates to their country’s federal and state governance. Interns will also gain a better understanding of contemporary politics and issues, whether they are local, regional, or national.
