Opportunity Type:

Temporary or Intern (Paid) (Fixed Term)

Summary:

JOB SUMMARY Habitat for Humanity's Terwilliger Center for Innovation in Shelter seeks a graduate-level intern — MPH or MSc — to support Habitat's thematic work around healthy housing during the academic year, between 6- 8 months. The intern will contribute directly to an evidence base and a technical framework. This role will bolster the growing body of evidence that housing conditions are among the most powerful and modifiable social determinants of health outcomes. The intern will consolidate data and evidence around thermal comfort and heat-related illness, vector-borne disease and structural housing modifications, indoor air quality and respiratory health, climate resilience and disaster risk, and WASH integration that points to the contributions of housing conditions and health.

Key Responsibilities:

ESSENTIAL DUTIES

  • Conduct an evidence review across housing and health domains — synthesizing peer-reviewed literature and program learnings.
  • Produce an annotated evidence map linking housing conditions to health outcomes
  • Map the landscape of organizations working at the housing-health nexus
  • Support the development of the theory of change with the evidence base and indicators for mapping change— how housing improvements lead to health outcomes, for whom, through what mechanisms
  • Draft language that will consolidate into an organizational technical framework
  • Produce a final learning product — a structured policy brief or evidence synthesis— in consultation with academic supervisor and the organization

MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS

Current enrollment as a student at an accredited college or university; pursuing a degree at the intersection of public health evidence and practice. Candidates pursuing their MPH (Master of Public Health); MSc Public Health; Health Policy; Environmental Health; Global Health; Urban Health and Implementation Science.

PREFERRED REQUIREMENTS

  • Understands social determinants of health and population health frameworks
  • Can read, evaluate, and synthesize peer-reviewed public health literature
  • Understands evidence grading and can distinguish strong from weak claims
  • Comfort with qualitative research methods — key informant interviews, surveys, synthesis
  • Comfortable with the use of AI in supporting research gathering and data analysis
  • Can turn academic evidence into clear, accessible practitioner language in English.
  • Writes well for non-academic audiences — development practitioners, donors, NGO leaders
  • Experience in communicating across cultures.

Hiring Range:

For paid interns in the US, the rate of pay is $17.00 per hour (undergraduate student) or $19.00 per hour (graduate student). HFHI offers its paid interns in the US with limited benefits, including retirement plan contributions.

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
