Water, Peace and Security (WPS) Internship

Deadline: Sunday July 20th, 2025 at 12PM

Start date: End of July/Beginning of August 

The Water, Peace and Security (WPS) partnership was founded in 2018 to pioneer the development of innovative tools and services that help identify and address water-related security risks. WPS is an award-winning initiative that tries to turn the current vicious water-conflict cycle into a more virtuous water-peace cycle. HCSS contributes to WPS engagement in Iraq. 

To support WPS work, we are looking for motivated candidates with a particular interest in water-related security issues. As HCSS is leading WPS work in Iraq, knowledge of the Arabic language would be an added bonus. Throughout the internship, successful candidates can contribute to cutting-edge research on various water-related topics; from raising awareness of potential water-related conflicts, and supporting dialogues with Iraqi stakeholders at the local, provincial, and national levels, to organising training modules and workshops that focus on the different elements of the water-security nexus. 

Visit the vacancy for the internship requirements, eligibility, prospective tasks, application procedure, compensation and more.
