Interns will receive monthly compensation.

We are living in a watershed moment for the intersection between plastic pollution and international relations and law. We are looking forward to welcoming an intern wishing to be in the first row to witness such a moment and to work with us in our engagement with governments, international organizations, and like-minded institutions.
