Kource is seeking a creative, detail-oriented, and high-energy person to support our organisation as a Video Journalism Intern. Our aim is to find a candidate who shares our passion for raising awareness of critical global issues and is eager to learn the ins and outs of fundraising.
Interns are an important part of Kource, and this internship will focus on helping advance the organisation's critical mission.
This intern will primarily support our content development team, which includes strong coordination with our editorial, outreach and communications teams.
The Examination’s journalism is based on rigorous, independent reporting and research. We retain full authority over our content, and maintain a firewall between news coverage decisions and sources of revenue. Acceptance of financial support does not constitute implied or actual endorsement of donors or their products, services or opinions. Our standards of editorial independence align directly with those adopted by the Institute for Nonprofit News.
Tasks and responsibilities:
Assist with the collection and curation of impact across the Center’s editorial, education, and outreach programs, including monthly outreach to grantees for follow-up and additional details on impact, as needed, and tracking the reach of the Center’s work using tools like CoverageBook and BuzzSumo
Assist with research on other possible tools for the measurement of reach and engagement
Select examples of impact for the weekly newsletter and social media
Assist with coordination with the communications team on the integration of impact on the website, including writing occasional impact posts, interviews with grantees, and awards write-ups
Applicants should have an interest in, and familiarity with, current international affairs, and the news media landscape. Excellent copy-editing and design skills are a plus, as are language skills and competence with Microsoft Office, Google Suite, Slack, Asana, and Salesforce.
