Yunus Centre's ambition is to become a global centre of excellence for social business incubation. It is a laboratory for research and development of social business ideas.

The Yunus Centre internship program primarily aims to be the centre of social business incubation, where social business ideas are being researched and developed. Upon arrival, all interns will have the opportunity to participate on a village trip to broaden their experience and to learn about the philosophy and operational procedures of Grameen Bank, as well as the impact of Grameen on the economic and cultural life of borrowers and Bangladesh. Interns will also have the chance to visit Grameen's affiliated sister companies and social business sites.
 
As a part of its ambition to maintain excellence, Yunus Centre requires the applicants to possess not only an above-average academic or entrepreneurial background, but also demonstrate strong leadership skills along with an interest in social business as an investment for the future. Applicants can be students, academics, businessmen or pretty much anyone who has demonstrated interest.
 
It is extremely important that the design and implementation of this program adheres to a structured, standardized, and an organized system in order to attract great minds, and to then successfully keep them within the Yunus Centre family. Applicants hoping to work alongside their like-minded peers to forge lasting relationships based on the ideas behind social business will discover the Internship Program at Yunus Centre to be the ideal avenue that allows them to do so.
 
The Yunus Centre internship is unpaid and you are responsible for all your living costs in Bangladesh, including food, transportation and accommodation. The minimum duration of internship is 3 months. The interns will be required to maintain a regular schedule of the local 10am-6pm, Sunday-Thursday office hours and to submit a report to their supervisor upon completion of their internship.
