NAPA is looking for interns in communication for spring of 2022
Do you want to promote Arctic perspectives throughout the Nordic region?
NAPA – The Nordic Institute in Greenland is looking for an intern for communication at our office in Katuaq. You will work in a dynamic team working with cultural exchange in Greenland, the Nordic countries, the Arctic and the Baltic countries. Our most important task is to ensure that Arctic perspectives are seen and recognized throughout the Nordic region.
In addition, we run the information service Info Norden Greenland, where citizens from all over the Nordic region can contact us with questions about moving, working, studying or traveling in Greenland.
As an intern at NAPA, you must work to make our work in the field of culture, language and identity visible – both online and at events and projects. We work versatile and fast – and here is room for new ideas and fun inventions. You can to a large extent help to shape your work tasks and working day.
We can offer experience with a number of communication tasks, including:
- Preparation of news articles for our own website napa.gl and articles about Greenland for Info Norden
- Preparation and distribution of press releases
- Answering inquiries about Greenland for Info Norden
- Updating social media, primarily facebook
- Case stories about the projects we support (both in writing, audio and video)
- Translating statistics from our cultural support program into good stories
- In addition, you can try your hand at making videos or podcasts if it interests you.
We imagine that you are in the process of a higher education at master’s level as a journalist or in the humanities or social sciences, but we encourage everyone regardless of specific direction to apply. In addition, we expect you to:
- Be skilled in writing and speaking in Greenlandic, English and at least one Nordic language
- Have an interest in communication and telling the good story
- Be creative, curious and open to new knowledge
It is an advantage (but definitely not a requirement) if you have experience with:
- WordPress/Drupal or other CMS systems
- Video or audio editing
Application, CV and possibly diplomas must be received by us no later than 4 January 2022 and sent to napa@napa.gl – interviews will be conducted shortly after.
Do you want to know more? If you have any questions, please feel free to write to Malin Corlin at malin@napa.gl or call +299 532573. You can read more about us at www.napa.gl.
