==Policy regarding | ==Policy regarding interns renumeration== | ||
FWC | FWC has no funds allocated for interns. Most interns are financially supported through their sending organizations, third-party scholarships or their families. FWC is happy to support the process of an intern's application for financial support. | ||
==Policy regarding number of interns and internship durations== | |||
FWC wishes to open its doors to as many young [[Social Entrepreneur|social entrepreneurs]] as possible. This is however not possible because an intern is not only an asset for the organization, but also a liability, both in terms of time attention required as well as financial costs incurred. We therefore rarely accept more than one intern per unit at the same time. Furthermore, interns are not encouraged to apply for durations shorter than 6 or ideally 12 months, because such applications are approved only under extraordinary circumstances. | |||
