Guatemala Radio Project Internship

Are you a fluent or proficient Spanish speaker? Practice your language skills while advancing a multi-year project supporting indigenous community radio stations!

The Guatemala Radio Project is a five-year partnership between Cultural Survival and six Guatemalan organizations designed to protect Maya peoples’ access to media. The project works to improve the effectiveness of community radio as a means for Guatemala’s indigenous groups to receive and convey information locally, nationally, and globally.

Interns working with the Guatemala Radio Project translate documents and memos; write updates for our publications and website related to the Guatemala Radio Project; and talk with our community radio station partners on a regular basis; among a variety of other tasks. Qualified interns are innovative and are able to think creatively about supporting the project implementation plan. Interns must be fluent or proficient (reading and writing) in Spanish. Guatemala Radio Project interns are supervised by the Director of Operations and Project Manager, Mark Camp.

To Apply:
