Aga Khan Foundation U.S.A. (AKF USA) has partnered with the Wolfensohn Center for Development at the Brookings Institution to establish a Young Professionals Program … in order to build the knowledge, skills and research capabilities of young professionals interested in careers in international development research, policy analysis and advocacy. Based at The Brookings Institution in Washington, DC, the Extern will assist in a program of research relevant to the priorities of the Aga Khan Development Network (AKDN). The Extern will work under the supervision/mentorship of a senior research manager, have the opportunity to help shape research, and gain exposure to a variety of the policy work of The Brookings Institution. Policy Externs will also benefit from other professional development organized by AKF USA.
