Overview
CIS El Salvador is accepting volunteer and internship applications for its September 16 to November 20, 2026 session across education, social justice, youth leadership, women's enterprise, fair-trade marketing, clean water and environmental work.
Complete internship details
CIS asks participants to commit at least 10 weeks and offers roles including English teaching, language-school marketing, women's businesses and empowerment, fair-trade crafts marketing, clean water and environment, and youth leadership development. Participants may gain practical project experience, cultural exchange and orientation support. CIS can help locate host-family housing, but volunteers and interns pay their own travel, housing, meals and local transportation. The page states a US$100 volunteer program fee. Election-observation volunteering is currently unavailable until further notice and is not represented as open here.
Eligibility requirements
Most roles require advanced written and spoken Spanish; English-teaching and certain marketing roles are exceptions. English teachers must be highly fluent in English. Applicants must be able to commit at least 10 weeks, show cultural sensitivity and interest in social justice, collaborate with staff, and work independently when needed. Role-specific skills vary. Internship applicants are asked to submit a resume and cover letter after completing the application form.

Verification notes
Corrective append-only revision of the same canonical opportunity. Verified against CIS El Salvador's current volunteer/internship page and live application form. The source gives Session 4 calendar dates of 16 September through 20 November 2026 but no start/end clock times or timezone, so event_start_at and event_end_at are intentionally null rather than fabricating midnight UTC. No application deadline is stated. The source explicitly states participant-paid expenses and a US$100 program fee; no stipend or travel funding is claimed.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
