Dear students,
The Singapore Democrats have created an internship experience for students who are innovative and passionate about public service.
The SDP Internship Programme offers students comprehensive personal and professional development, as well as the opportunity to work with political leaders in the opposition.
Our internship programme is a valuable addition to your educational development and learning experience. The programme provides you with the support necessary to ensure that your experience is fruitful and rewarding.
As an intern, you will get the opportunity to work in our various units under our Party Organising Department. In our Policy unit, interns will assist in research and analysis on a wide range of issues. Some of our recent policy papers published were The SDP National Healthcare Plan and Housing A Nation.
Interns can also work with our Communications group which prepares and coordinates news releases, audio and video presentations, and party reports. Intern duties include assembling daily-clips packets, assisting with media events, and maintaining an effective presence on the internet through various social media tools.
Interns will also have the opportunity gain frontline political activities with our Ground Operations team in the planning and execution of on-the-ground campaign work and reaching out to youths.
There is also valuable work experience to be gained from our Community Services and Training & Development Units.
The SDP Internship Programme is intended for persons seeking to gain academic and/or professional experience. The Internship does not carry a stipend. However, a workspace is provided with close working contact with party leaders. The programme is intended to provide you with:
Exposure to the operations and day-to-day tasks of the SDP’s Office.
Assignments that reflect methods in how the party strives to be competent, constructive and compassionate.
A framework to enhance educational experience through practical work and research, thereby developing skills useful for career development.
