Intern & Volunteer with Khoj

EXPLORE

Learn. Reflect. Act.

At Khoj – Society for People's Education, internships are opportunities to learn from communities, engage with real-world challenges, and contribute to meaningful social and ecological change.

Our work brings together education, agroecology, food sovereignty, climate action, and women's leadership. Interns become part of a learning community where knowledge is created through experience, dialogue, reflection, and action.

Whether you are interested in education, agriculture, environmental sustainability, gender justice, community development, or research, Khoj offers a unique opportunity to connect theory with practice and learning with action.

EXPERIENCE

Real World Learning

Why Intern with Khoj?

At Khoj, learning extends beyond the classroom. Homes, neighbourhoods, schools, gardens, agricultural farms, and community spaces become places of inquiry, discovery, and action.

Interns gain practical experience while exploring the connections between education, ecology, food systems, climate resilience, and social justice. You will work alongside educators, women leaders, farmers, gardeners, researchers, and community members committed to building a more just and sustainable future.
