<h1>Internships at the Free Software Foundation Europe</h1>

|
|
|
|
<p><strong>The Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) is looking for an intern to
|
|
join our team, beginning from August 2006, or later.</strong></p>
|
|
|
|
<p><strong>FSFE operates in a lively environment of numerous volunteers from many
|
|
countries and several full-time employees. The geographic focus of the
|
|
internships will be Zürich, Switzerland.</strong></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Before starting with the details, a few words from former FSFE interns:</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>"FSFE is involved in the most important processes on how Information
|
|
Society is being shaped, be it on a national, European, or on a global
|
|
level. It's exciting to be part of these activities."<br />
|
|
<i>Alexander Finkenberger</i></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>"If you've followed my <a href="http://www.fsfe.org/en/fellows/gerloff/blog">blog</a>,
|
|
you will have an idea of what I did
|
|
with my time. The FSFE is a great place to work, and I've enjoyed almost
|
|
every single day. In few other companies or organisations would I have
|
|
had the chance to do useful work and learn in an international context
|
|
like I did here. Take this chance, if you can."<br />
