Internships at Ibis

We hire interns to work with us in our US and RSA offices during two terms each year: Winter and Summer, with each internship lasting approximately 10 weeks. Generally, we post internship applications in February/March and October to recruit for the upcoming term. A modest stipend is available, though the exact amount is dependent on funding availability. We also welcome applications from students receiving work study or practicum/school credit.

US Summer 2026 Research Intern

We seek 2-3 interns with a strong commitment to the advancement of sexual and reproductive health, rights, and justice and the ability to provide research support on Ibis projects. Intern positions are meant to offer exposure and skills-building opportunities to early career researchers and would be most appropriate for undergraduate, masters-level students, or people with entry-level work experience (no degree required; this internship is not designed for PhD-level researchers). Applicants should be comfortable working on abortion, supporting multiple projects simultaneously, interacting with people from diverse backgrounds, and they should have experience with and/or interest in sexual and reproductive health research and advocacy. This is a remote position based within the United States. If you are located near the Cambridge, MA or Oakland, CA offices, there may be opportunities to visit the office. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, with a final deadline of April 3rd, 2026. The application process consists of the application (here) and, if selected, one 30-minute interview with 1-2 members of the Ibis hiring team. These positions are expected to begin in late May or early June.

Intern positions will require a time commitment of approximately 20-30 hours a week for 10-12 weeks; however, this may be flexible depending on the candidate’s availability and project needs. Interns will receive a modest stipend (minimum of $4,000 for 10 weeks), though the exact amount may increase dependent on funding availability. There may be an opportunity to extend the length of the internship, but this is similarly dependent on funding. We welcome applications from students receiving work study or practicum/school credit. This position is based in the United States. Unfortunately, we are not able to sponsor work visas at this time.
