Some internships build your CV. This one builds something else — the capacity to sit alongside a child with learning difficulties, support a psychologist during a session with a vulnerable family, or lead a workshop that gives a young person a moment of genuine self-expression. TTT Tierra Techo Trabajo is offering an Educational and Social Support Internship in Agrigento, Sicily, and it's one of the most meaningful placements on this list.
