Opportunities
Volunteers
The Ismail Mahomed Centre for Human and Peoples’ Rights welcomes and accepts non stipendiary volunteers who wish to get actively involved in its advocacy and research mandates of promoting social justice and human rights culture in South Africa and beyond. This arrangement offers such volunteers an excellent opportunity to learn about and help implement IMCHPR programmes. It is completely voluntary, and not a paid job. At the end of the exercise, volunteers are issued letters of recognition. For more information, contact info.imchpr@univen.ac.za
Visiting Scholars
The Ismail Mahomed Centre for Human and Peoples’ Rights welcomes and accepts selected non-stipendiary visiting scholars each year from collaborating institutions, who come to collaborate on research and support other activities of the Centre. In addition, subject to availability of space and resources, the IMCHPR is able to host semester-long Visiting Scholars from anywhere in the world. During their time here, they access the university’s library resources, engage in research, and partner with the IMCHPR and the Faculty on various projects.

Its main goal is to give successful candidates the opportunity to improve their analytical and technical skills in an academic NGO setting. The Internship Programme is open on an on-going basis. Students enrolled at a fully accredited degree programme (Bachelor, Honours and Master) or who have completed any of the programme can apply for the Centre’s internship.
