Pros

Good cause, they provıde some nıce info about the impacts of ODA.

Cons

The organization is poorly managed. They constantly require proof of work through screenshots and evidence. The internship is unpaid, and they expect you to solicit donations from family and friends. When asked about the allocation of funds, they grumble and explain that the money is used for office rent and employee salaries, which seems unethical since donations are intended to support their cause, not their staff. Why would my student loans go to their staffs' grocery spending? It should not be my job to pay the employees. Interns have minimal interaction and are frequently threatened with removal from the program for minor oversights. You will be asked to use your social media and constantly post their stuff which is annoying. So, do something else for your CV.
