Overview
UNDP Timor-Leste's official jobs page maintains an internship application route and directs internship applications to the country office's HR address.
Complete internship details
UNDP internships give students and recent graduates practical exposure to development work in country offices, regional hubs or headquarters. UNDP's current global careers guidance states that internships normally last up to six months, with an exceptional extension to nine months when completed for academic credit, and that interns receive a monthly stipend that varies by assignment location and modality.
Eligibility requirements
UNDP's current internship criteria require applicants to be enrolled in a graduate programme, be in the final academic year of a first university degree, or have graduated from such a degree and be able to start the internship within one year of graduation. Applicants should demonstrate interest in development and proficiency in at least one UNDP working language; the Timor-Leste office's local application documents govern placement-specific requirements.

Verification notes
The current UNDP Timor-Leste Jobs page was checked on 2026-09-07 UTC and includes a dedicated INTERNSHIPS section linking the local internship information/application/agreement documents and directing all internship applications to hr.staff.tp@undp.org. Current global UNDP Careers internship guidance was also checked for programme-wide academic eligibility, duration and stipend policy.
