The International Human Rights Internship Program

IHRIP's mission and work are based on the belief that human rights activists have knowledge and skills, as a result of their day-to-day work, that are important to the success not only of their own work, but the work of other activists and organizations, whether in their own or in other countries and regions. The human rights movement--in specific countries and regions as well as internationally--is strengthened through the exchange of this knowledge, experience and expertise.

IHRIP seeks to facilitate this exchange of knowledge and experience through sponsoring

• Professional development and exchange projects for staff of human rights organizations; and
• The Development of written resources focused on specific areas of human rights work.
