Social Work Internships

Buenos Aires is no stranger to the social challenges of many large cities today – high levels of urban migration contributes to the issues of homelessness, unemployment and drug abuse. Social work interns in Buenos Aires may find themselves working within disadvantaged members of Argentinian society – the homeless, refugees, migrants, people living with HIV, and the unemployed -- to improve their social/economic situation and current living conditions. Projects include promoting sexual health and AIDS awareness among refugees, assisting patients with serious or chronic health issues, developing recreational workshops for the orphans and giving supportive classes to marginalized children. Your internship will stretch your social work skills in a new context, offering the possibility of incredible personal and professional growth.
