Humanitarian Health Support Intern 2026: Paid Opportunity in Switzerland ($3,000/Month)

WHO Technical Officer, Health Workforce 2026: Strengthening Global Health Systems

Location: Geneva, Switzerland (Global Humanitarian Hub) Stipend: USD $3,000 per month (approx. CHF 2,600) Duration: 6 Months (Renewable) Contract Type: Paid Internship

In the competitive world of international development, finding a paid internship is rare; finding one in Switzerland—the heart of global humanitarianism—is exceptional. A leading International Non-Governmental Organization (INGO) based in Geneva is currently accepting applications for a Humanitarian Health Support Intern.

With a monthly stipend of $3,000 USD, this opportunity breaks down the financial barriers that often exclude talented young professionals from gaining experience in Geneva. This role is designed for an aspiring public health leader who is ready to support emergency medical responses in conflict zones and disaster-struck regions, all while sitting just miles from the WHO and UN headquarters.

This is not a coffee-fetching role. You will be embedded in the Health Unit, working alongside epidemiologists and emergency coordinators to analyze field data, track disease outbreaks, and ensure that medical supply chains remain unbroken. If you are an MPH student or recent graduate looking for your big break in Global Health, this is it.
