EXTREME Hangout Development Support Internship

​​

Do you care about the environment, want to reverse climate change, are you aware of the UN SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) and interested in the COP gatherings? The EXTREME Hangout is seeking an intern to help with the development of the EXTREME Hangout and support the senior management team.

​

The ideal intern needs to have three things:

​

  1. Be a dynamic self-starter and a fast learner.

  2. Strong organisational and admin skills, be familiar with standard office software, a good communicator, be happy to build and lead a development email campaign, support the senior team, be quick and responsive on email.

  3. An interest in the environment. Has watched Don't Look Up, follows Earthrise, might have Ministry of the Future on their reading list, wants to know more about Elizabeth Wathuti, and picks up litter when they visit the beach.

 

The Extreme Hangout is a platform to give young changemakers a voice on the environment.

We launched the Extreme Hangout at COP26 in Glasgow, took it to COP27 in Egypt and are now making plans for COP28 in Dubai, alongside a podcast and global event series. Our goal is to help shift the climate dial, by shaking up the climate conversation, popularising the movement and inspiring environmental action. Over the last two years we have worked with 300 speakers, 8000 visitors, 500,000 watchers, 5m audience and had a press reach of 100m.
