Required Documents for This Application
Please note that you will need to have the following information ready in order to complete your application:
Contract Duration
Interns are required to work full time for a period of six months (to be agreed to prior to commencement).
The Opportunity
The International Criminal Court (ICC) investigates and, where warranted, tries individuals charged with the gravest crimes of concern to the international community: genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and crimes of aggression. The Court is participating in the global fight to end impunity, and through international criminal justice, the Court aims to hold those responsible accountable for their crimes and to help prevent the crimes from happening again. You can contribute to this cause by joining the ICC.
Education
All candidates must be a recent graduate or in the final stages of their studies at a recognised university. Candidates are expected to be currently enrolled in, or a recent graduate of, a Bachelor’s or Master’s program in Communications, Media, Journalism, Marketing, Web design, or in related areas.
Experience
Internship placements focus on candidates in the early stages of their professional careers. Practical experience that is relevant to the work of the Staff Union Council may be considered an asset, but should not exceed 3 (three) years.
Knowledge of Languages
Proficiency (written and spoken) in English, is required. Working knowledge of French and other UN official language of the Court (Arabic, Chinese, Russian and Spanish) is an asset.
Other criteria
It is the Court's objective to have diversity and gender balance. In line with the ICC's efforts to improve geographical representation among staff, nationals of non-represented and under- represented countries at the ICC are encouraged to apply. The list can be found here [link removed].
Remuneration
Please note that internship and visiting professional placements at the ICC are unfunded. The ICC is not able to provide participants in the Internship and Visiting Professional Programme with any remuneration, nor is it possible to provide reimbursement for expenses incurred prior, during or after the internship or visiting professional placement. Applicants must therefore be able to support themselves for the entire duration of their internship or visiting professional placement.
