WBG Pioneer - Inclusive Internship Program
Posted on Jul 16, 2026
WBG Pioneer Background/Organizational Context This track reflects the WBG's recognition that systemic barriers based on race and ethnicity continue to limit equitable access to international professional opportunities for Indigenous and Afro-descendant populations across Latin America. Interns are placed across all functional areas of the Bank — in economics, technology, operations, communications, legal, climate, finance, and more — based on their academic and professional qualifications. The Inclusive Internship Program aims to create mutual value by offering meaningful career opportunities for Indigenous and Afro-descendant candidates from Latin America, while also generating insights, building inclusive capabilities, and strengthening team practices across WBG units. Program Objectives: • Build a more representative talent pipeline that reflects the population of the region the WBG serves. • Enrich teams with the cultural knowledge, lived experiences, and problem-solving perspectives of Indigenous and Afro-descendant professionals. Duties and Responsibilities • Interns will take part in substantive work aligned with their qualifications and the hosting team's priorities. Responsibilities may include, but are not limited to: • Research and Analysis: Conduct research on development topics, policies, and projects; summarize findings in reports, presentations, or briefing notes. • Data Collection and Management: Collect, clean, and analyze data to support ongoing projects, evaluations, or reports; maintain accurate records and databases. • Project Support: Assist teams in planning, monitoring, and implementing initiatives; support coordination with internal and external stakeholders. • Communication and Outreach: Draft communication materials such as newsletters, social media content, and internal updates; assist in preparing materials for workshops, webinars, and events. • Knowledge Management: Document lessons learned, best practices, and project updates; contribute to knowledge-sharing platforms. • Administrative Support: Provide logistical support for meetings, events, and reporting as needed, while ensuring smooth project operations.
