IISD will assist in making the necessary arrangements and cover the cost of the visas for the duration of your assignment overseas. Passport All interns are required to obtain a passport at their own expense and must send a copy of the information page upon acceptance of the placement. You can pick up an application at your nearest post office. It can take up to two to three weeks to process your passport application. Please allow for mailing time.
All amounts are in Canadian dollars.
At the start of the internship, IISD will provide each intern with a return airfare ticket from your place of residence in Canada to Winnipeg. The return portion of the ticket will be at the end of your internship. Travel from Winnipeg Interns are responsible for their international ticket from Winnipeg to their host organization and return. Whenever possible, host organizations will either provide their intern with a monthly stipend to offset the cost of accommodations, or free accommodations. Sometimes host organizations already have a place for their intern to live.
