Free A Billion - Internship

Unpaid Internship.

 

Free A Billion is a bottom-up people’s mass movement that aims to revamp India’s operating system by creating a popular demand for a new set of rules that will put us on the road to prosperity. We envision an India rooted in uncompromising respect for individual freedom in all its aspects – economic, social, religious, and political – with an open society wherefree markets under the rule of law lead to growing prosperity for all. In 2016-'17, with Mumbai as our focus, we are working to bring about much needed reforms in policy and governance. Our efforts are concentrated towards engaging with every multi-faceted individual and organisation, bringing them together with a non-partisan agenda and a model of governance. This will break the existing, ineffective, systemic silos and self-defeating systems once and for all.

All confirmed interns and volunteers will undergo training on leadership, organising and action. The session design and coaching is based on Harvard Kennedy School of Government’s programme on community organizing. On completion of their stint with FAB, each student will be awarded a certificate of experience.

We have our work cut out for us and we would need all the help there is. FAB is expanding its team and we are looking for full-time and part-time interns and volunteers:

FAB is looking for:

- Students, graduates or post-graduates from any stream. We don’t discriminate.

- Someone with attention to detail, infinite energy and passion. Perseverance is a key virtue.

- A creative mind with a sense of design. Art speaks louder than words.

- Great presentation and communication skills. Walk the talk.

- Good with Microsoft Office. With great power comes great responsibility.

- Somewhat crazy and a guaranteed streak of madness. We think out of the box.

Why students should intern with FAB:

- We are flexible with timings because attempts to change the world cannot be time-bound.

- We are a bunch of curious, creative, experienced, intellectually active, passionate and impatient individuals who believe that India can be prosperous not in 50, but 5 years.

- Students get a chance to learn on-the-job, skills from research to business development, marketing to database management, policy analysis to writing.

- Students will actually be creating a dent in the political and social space; society and policymakers will take note of your work. After all, we are talking of sparking a revolution here.

It will be an experience like no other, because we are a team that is trying to do the impossible – tasks that have never been done before and if you look at it, someone, somewhere, has got to start. We already have. 

Join the team and help change the course of India’s future for the better. One where every individual enjoys his/her most fundamental rights and where governments are wholly invested in maintaining rule of law and order and not plundering their subjects.

*Conditions:

• FAB Fellows and Ambassadors are unpaid positions. We would prefer unpaid Associates and Interns as well. However, FAB is willing to negotiate for exceptional candidates.

• Travel expenditure undertaken for FAB will be reimbursed for all positions.
