The United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) is the regional development arm of the United Nations for the Asia-Pacific region. With a membership of 62 Governments, 58 of which are in the region, and a geographical scope that stretches from Turkey in the west to the Pacific island nation of Kiribati in the east, and from the Russian Federation in the north to New Zealand in the south, ESCAP is the most comprehensive of the United Nations five regional commissions. It is also the largest United Nations body serving the Asia-Pacific region with over 600 staff. UNESCAP provides opportunities for students who are enrolled in graduate programmes to undertake an internship with one of its diverse range of divisions and agencies, most of which are located at its Bangkok headquarters. The programme aims to expose the intern to the day-to-day work and special missions of UNESCAP, promote a better understanding of international problems, and to introduce the intern to the unique and multinational work environment of the UN organization. The programme will enhance the intern's educational experience through practical work and/or research, along with providing the host division at UNESCAP with able assistance in various specialized professional fields. |
