Join us in our mission to change what it is to be blind in Canada.

Founded in 1918, CNIB is one of Canada’s oldest charities. We believe our new strategic plan, The Way Forward , will once again revolutionize the way we serve and support our community from coast to coast. Working with us means that you'll be part of an ambitious, diverse team that's committed to changing what it is to be blind today.

We're looking for a mission-driven Intern, Global Development & Research who is passionate about creating more accessible, inclusive, and equitable communities across Canada where people with low vision have unlimited opportunities and can experience life free from barriers and discrimination.

Role

CNIB is providing international internships for Canadian citizens and permanent residents who identify as living with a disability (preference for visual based disability) aged 18-30 through the following two streams (volunteer or salaried) :

1) Full time cost covered, unpaid, in-person :

• Internships will span 14 weeks comprising of two weeks of predeparture onboarding and training.
• 11 weeks of cost-covered international placement at disability-serving organizations in one of the four collaborating Caribbean countries (Jamaica, Guyana, and St Lucia), followed by one week of concluding activities (reflection and debriefing).
• Travel and living expenses for on-site internships will be covered by the CNIB; however, the placements themselves are unpaid outside of a stipend for living expenses (if funding permits).

2) Full time paid virtual (only offered as an accessible alternative if disability restricts travel as determined by the intern – no proof required) :
