Welcome to Internships in the Philippines

For an internship experience that is equal parts exotic and enriching, the Philippines is the destination to pick! Find world-class diving, mind-blowing natural beauty, and a fascinating history to unveil.

With its crystalline waters, world-famous beaches, and some of the best diving spots on the planet, the Philippines is a haven for marine enthusiasts and ocean lovers. The country’s lush landscapes extend beyond the shoreline though. You can explore the rice terraces of Banaue, hike the mountains of Luzon, or venture into the jungle for a taste of the country’s diverse ecosystems. All the while, you’ll be immersed in Filipino culture. Interning in the Philippines, you can enjoy your downtime participating in vibrant festivals, taking in a rich heritage of art, and enjoying great food. What’s more, Filipinos are renowned for their warm hospitality and friendliness, so interns will be welcomed by warm, lively communities.

The Philippines, an archipelago of 7,641 islands in Southeast Asia, beckons interns with its important history, burgeoning economy, and thriving nonprofit sector. While the country has made significant progress in terms of development, it still faces challenges in terms of income inequality, infrastructure, and poverty. The Philippines offers an array of nonprofit internship opportunities working towards these causes, but they also offer some of the best marine conservation internships in the world. A global hotspot for marine biodiversity, the Philippines boasts extraordinary marine research opportunities, studying thriving coral reefs teaming with countless fish species and unique creatures like pygmy seahorses and whale sharks.
