The internship and volunteer program at the Kazimierz Pułaski Foundation is designed for young people who want to make a real impact on the future of international security, develop their skills, and work within one of Poland’s most dynamic think tanks.

The program is aimed at students and recent graduates interested in international politics, global challenges, energy, state resilience, and contemporary security threats. If you want to gain meaningful experience — this is the right place for you.

The “Leaders in Security” program is more than just a volunteer opportunity — it is daily work at the heart of a think tank. From day one, you become part of the Foundation’s team, contributing to real projects, analyses, and international events.

Your daily activities may include:

• Event support – assisting with large conferences such as the Warsaw Security Forum, as well as smaller expert meetings.
• Analytical support – preparing briefs, reports, and materials for experts and the Foundation’s partners.
• Networking – attending meetings with decision-makers, foreign organizations, and public institutions.
• Skills development – participating in training, workshops, and mentoring to gain skills in international collaboration, project management, and critical thinking.
• Developing your own initiatives – your ideas can become part of the Foundation’s activities, giving you the opportunity to lead them from concept to implementation.

• The program lasts 3 months and takes place throughout the year — from January to December.
• It is flexible and can be adapted to your study schedule and availability. You can participate in selected projects and attend meetings both online and in person at the Foundation’s office.
• Each volunteer is assigned a mentor who supports your development and integration into the team.
• Fixed term: June 15 – October 15, dedicated to the internship in organizing and collaborating with the Warsaw Security Forum, one of the largest international events organized by the Kazimierz Pułaski Foundation.

By working in selected offices and program areas, you will:

• gain hands-on experience in a leading Polish think tank,
• contribute to the institutional strengthening and development of the Foundation,
• acquire practical experience in analytical, organizational, and communication work,
• develop future-ready skills that are highly valued in the labor market.

• Upon completion of the program, you will receive a certificate of participation.
• For outstanding performance, you may receive an individual recommendation, validating your experience and skills.
