Description

Are you our next Insights, Research and Learning Intern? What We Offer A meaningful internship where you’ll be part of an international work environment and a team passionate about improving maternal and newborn health. This internship offers valuable insights into how a global non-profit operates, with a specific focus on monitoring, evaluation, research and learning (MERL). Throughout your internship, you will actively contribute to key MERL functions, including designing monitoring and evaluation protocols, designing surveys and qualitative data collection tools, using digital data collection platforms, analyse quantitative and qualitative data and contribute to report writing or drafting of academic articles. With guidance and support, you will have the opportunity to take ownership of your own tasks and projects, gain hands-on experience in project management and self-leadership, and develop essential workplace skills. We recognise the unique perspectives and energy that our interns bring, and we are committed to providing a meaningful learning experience. Your Role You will work closely with the Global MEL Managers, assisting with daily tasks while also engaging in longer-term projects. Your responsibilities will include: Supporting the design and development of project MEL protocols. Conducting ad-hoc desk research on new measurement approaches, regional contexts and the like. Conducting qualitative and quantitative data collection, research and analysis. Drafting reports and presentations. This internship offers flexibility, with standard working hours from 9:00 to 17:00 and the option to work remotely up to two days a week or upon agreement. You will have regular weekly check-ins with your supervisor to support your learning and professional development. Who You Are We are looking for a proactive person with a teamwork and ‘go-for-it’ attitude, who is willing to learn. You are required to be a Bachelor’s or Master’s student whose internship is integrated into their academic program. Ideally you have a background in Global Health or similar fields with a strong interest in quantitative methods. As this is an unpaid position, applicants should be receiving financial support from a third party (e.g., SU/CSN/Erasmus Stipendium or another student funding source). If you are eager to gain hands-on experience in a global non-profit setting and contribute to meaningful change, we encourage you to apply. About Maternity Foundation We are a team of roughly 40 colleagues working across our three global hubs in Ethiopia, Denmark, and India. We come from various backgrounds – global health, midwifery, anthropology, IT, and business – and take pride in an entrepreneurial spirit and a can-do attitude. Together, we are an ambitious and purpose-driven team working in a welcoming and informal atmosphere. Maternity Foundation (MF) is an international non-profit organisation that works to ensure safer births for women and new-borns through innovative programs and digital solutions. From 2025 MF will accelerate the impact of the Safe Delivery+ Programme, a comprehensive, evidence based micro-learning universe with the Safe Delivery App, a free, evidence-based job aid, learning and training tool designed to support predominantly midwives, at the centre. The programme is aimed at holistically addressing maternal and newborn healthcare challenges through a multitude of activities including a new SSA flagship initiative. The Safe Delivery+ Programme takes a lighthouse approach, where exemplary cutting-edge practices and solutions using the Safe Delivery+ Programme, act as frontrunners for innovative change which other countries can subsequently follow.
