Through Wellesley Internships in Africa, students undertake ten-week summer internships in Morocco and Uganda. Placements are available to students from a variety of academic backgrounds in organizations ranging from an international educational program to a local NGO working to create stronger cross-cultural relationships. These education and community development-based projects enable students to encounter the diversity, creative dynamism, and humanity of the continent. For other interships in Africa, please see our Internship Program in the Anchor Point Internships in Global Leadership.
