Yanapuma
offers students and researchers the opportunity to carry out research
and internships here in Ecuador as part of their academic studies.
Internships
We offer a
list of specific internship opportunities with Yanapuma Foundation.
These involve working as part of the foundation, in coordination with
Yanapuma staff on specific ongoing projects of the foundation. Such
internships are primarily work oriented rather than research projects,
although some time will be allowed for carrying out assignments
associated with fulfilling the academic requirements of your home
institution. Interns will work for between 3 - 6 months in the office or
in the field, or in a combination of the two.
