Capacity Building
INTERNS | SKILLSHARING
Forum has been conducting skillsharing workshops that provide participants
with basic information about ADB’s operations in Asia and the Pacific
region. It also provides them an overview of civil society engagement with
the Bank.
Forum also intends to broaden the scope of its advocacy through its
internship program. Through this program, Forum provides participants with
basic knowledge on the operations of the regional bank and raises their
consciousness on the latest pressing issues related to the Bank's projects
and policies. Interns on the other hand are encouraged to share their
respective organizations' experiences in terms of local/national advocacy
and how such could be made complementary to Forum's advocacy in order to
monitor ADB's intervention in their respective countries. This program is
open to applicants from network members and other organizations that are
willing to engage with and monitor the operations of the ADB in their
respective countries. View list of past interns
