All interns work as members of a team and enjoy substantial responsibility in their special area of work. The GPF office , located across the street from the UN, provides a pleasant work environment, equipped with a high-speed computer network and comfortable workplaces. It is an atmosphere low on stress and high on accomplishment and serious purpose. In the building, a community of many NGOs often work and socialize together. Interns can network with these and other NGOs, as well as UN and mission staff.
Interns enjoy being in New York City, a world center of finance, media, education and the arts.
Interns can take advantage of New York's many cultural and entertainment offerings. Beyond working together in the office, interns socialize outside the workplace and get to know people in the GPF community. Interns often have lunch together. Recent summer interns enjoyed a GPF outing in the countryside on Long Island. GPF always honors departing interns at a special dinner celebration.
