Internships
In partnership with international development and relief
organizations, the Marc Lindenberg Center develops internship
opportunities for University of Washington students. Students have interned with
CARE, Habitat for Humanity, Mercy Corps, World Vision and
many other organizations in countries throughout the developing
world.
