Economics Writing & Communications Internships (Summer 2024)

The Yale Economic Growth Center and Inclusion Economics at Yale University seek undergraduates with writing and communications skills and substantial economics coursework to serve as Economics Writing & Communications Interns for Summer 2024. In addition to assisting with general communications tasks, students will have the opportunity to author content about current research in development economics. The successful candidate may also contribute to other communications efforts by gathering and synthesizing information to be used in articles directed toward the public (via profiles, op-eds and blogs), academic audiences (research summaries), and policymakers (policy briefs). The writing projects will cover research on data-driven insights for policy in low- and middle-income countries, with particular attention given to gender, markets, international trade, climate policy, governance, social protection, environmental justice, and economic opportunity. Interns may also support ongoing research initiatives in regions like India and Nepal, contributing to a deeper understanding of inclusion dynamics in diverse socio-economic contexts. The goal is to convey research insights for policy to improve lives in developing countries.
