Current Interns Mike & Jakob
Overview
Reef Artisan Collaborative Inc. (RACI) works with communities in the developing world to mobilize local involvement in socially responsible livelihoods and marine conservation. As part of the RACI:Indonesia team, interns will help to develop and maintain programs that promote sustainable livelihoods and youth development in the Bunaken Marine Park community. We are currently offering candidates two month internships with openings year round. Interns are responsible for travel expenses plus a $15 USD per diem charge that covers all meals and housing.
Location
As an intern you have the opportunity to experience two distinct regions of Indonesia. First, Interns will spend two to four weeks in Ubud, Bali as part of an orientation to the project. While in Ubud, interns will live, work and eat at RACI’s villa office, situated in a traditional village surrounded by rice paddies. The second half of the internship program takes place in Bunaken Marine Park, North Sulawesi, an international dive mecca and biodiversity hotspot. On-site accommodations will be pleasantly rustic.
