What our volunteers say
I greatly valued my role in supporting EA group organisers at EAN, gaining deep insights into the strategy and feeling integral to decision-making. Guided expertly by James, I navigated new challenges, enriching my skills and understanding of EAN's mission. The experience enhanced my work style and perspectives, offering lasting benefits. I strongly endorse an EAN internship for anyone seeking to amplify their impact.
