A volunteer role, open to young people

Every role we offer is voluntary. The experience we ask for can come from a course, a student project, an internship, volunteering or a personal project: every skill counts, wherever you gained it. Our roles are designed first and foremost for young people, and we weigh your motivation and potential as carefully as your track record. Want to be part of something big? Apply.

Nice to have

  • Studies in translation, languages or journalism
  • Knowledge of the labs’ themes

What this role gives you

  • Published translations, credited in the editorial process
  • Regular practice in translating analytical writing

Applications open until 15 January 2027

YouthShare reserves the right to close this listing before that date, as soon as the right person is found. We therefore encourage you to apply now.

The one-year commitment

A non-profit project is built over time. Every volunteer therefore commits for at least one year: time to settle in, carry the assignment through and pass on what they have learned. The weekly time depends on the role and is shown on each role page.
