International Development and Nonprofit Management Intern
“I'm in Atlanta doing an internship with the Carter Center's Americas Program. My main projects will be monitoring Nicaragua's political situation weekly, in addition to researching the role of the media and the right to identity in Latin America. It's been fascinating to learn about the work of the Carter Center and delving into Latin American politics -and meeting the Carters this week! ”
