Apply for the 2024 AYF Internship in Armenia!

The Armenian Youth Federation – Youth Organization of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (AYF-YOARF) Eastern United States is pleased to announce that the Intern application for the 2024 AYF Internship in Armenia is now open! The program dates are from June 14-August 16.

The AYF Internship in Armenia program was started in 1992 to encourage Armenians in the Diaspora to visit and volunteer in Armenia. Over the past 31 years, the AYF has sent over 180 participants to Armenia and organized internships with Armenia’s universities, hospitals, clinics, healthcare and support centers, as well as its engineering and technology companies, just to name a few. The Internship in Armenia program turns the homeland into a reality by exposing interns to the people and culture of present day Armenia.

The program seeks motivated people who are willing to devote their summer to volunteer in Armenia. The Diaspora serves as a valuable resource in the growth and stability of Armenia, and as an intern, you can contribute to Armenia’s progress. Volunteers are placed in government agencies, private companies and NGOs related to their career and interests, with internships available in almost every field. During the week, participants volunteer at their assigned internship. On weekends, interns embark on tours outside of Yerevan. Applicants will also have the option to participate in the Camp Javakhk program for one week.

The Internship Director will also provide opportunities for interns to attend a weekly lecture series, cultural events and any other activities in which the interns may show interest. All applicants must be between 18-28 years of age and have a valid passport. AYF membership is not necessary.

Those interested in participating can apply at ayf.org/internship.

The AYF Internship application has a soft deadline of February 1, 2024.

If you are interested in a two-month summer internship program in Yerevan, where you will climb the mountains and hills of Armenia, swim in the waters of Lake Sevan, interact with the villagers of Datev and explore the churches of every corner of Armenia, then don’t hesitate to apply to the 2024 AYF-YOARF Internship in Armenia program!

Please contact the Central Internship Council via email at internship@ayf.org if you have any questions.
