Conditions Governing UNCTAD India Programme Internship
1. UNCTAD has no formalised internship programme but occasionally arranges ad

hoc internships for students specialising in areas related to its work. These
internships are intended to promote among the participants insight into the
working of UNCTAD.
2. UNCTAD has no provision in its budget to pay interns. All costs connected with
an internship must be borne by the nominating institution, related institution or
government, which may provide the required financial assistance to its students;
or by the student, who will have to obtain financing for subsistence and make her
or his own arrangements for travel, accommodation etc.
3. The minimum duration of an internship is one month. The maximum duration is 3

three months.
4. While working at UNCTAD, the interns are not considered as officials or staff
members. UNCTAD accepts no responsibility by reason of the duly authorised
presence of interns on its premises. On the other hand, interns are expected to
work full time like regular staff members and are expected to carry out the duties
assigned to them. They are bound by the same duties and obligations as regular
staff members; they must, in particular, observe the utmost discretion in regards to
any information known to them by reason of their internship.
5. The intern undertakes to conduct herself or himself in a manner compatible with

responsibilities undertaken when joining the internship programme. The intern
must keep confidential any information made known during the course of
internship and not publish any reports or papers on the basis of information
obtained, except with the prior authorisation of UNCTAD.
6. The intern will provide notice in case of illness or other unavoidable

circumstances that might prevent her or him from completing the internship.
7. There is no expectancy of employment at the end of the internship and the intern
shall not be eligible to apply for, or be appointed to, any professional post at the
UNCTAD India Programme Office for a period of six months following the end
of their service.
8. UNCTAD accepts no responsibility for costs arising from accidents and/or illness
incurred during the internship and the intern therefore has to have health
insurance coverage. Interns are also responsible for obtaining necessary visas and
are required to send to UNCTAD a certified health certificate together with a
copy of a health insurance policy.
