Listening to Leaders (LTL) Research Assistantship
The Listening to Leaders team at AidData is now accepting applications for Summer 2022 internships. The Listening to Leaders program collects 360 degree feedback on development priorities, progress, and performance from the perspective of leaders in low- and middle-income countries. We research convergence and divergence in priorities; barriers and opportunities to advance reforms; performance of development partners; and evidence-informed policymaking. Interns play an incredibly important role in the implementation of our Listening to Leaders surveys. Research Assistants spend 75% of their time updating the sampling frame by identifying the names, positions, and contact information of leaders working in government, development organizations, non-governmental organizations, the private sector, and academia. The remaining 25% will be spent on sampling frame cleaning and preparing dissemination material of survey results among other tasks.
Motivated and organized students of any major are encouraged to apply. Interest in International Relations and/or fluency or proficiency in a foreign language are a plus. Interns start at $11 per hour and then are eligible for a raise after their first 200 hours, pending a performance review. Interns and research assistants are expected to work at minimum 30 hours per week in the summer. For further information, please contact Kelsey Marshall at kmarshall@aiddata.wm.edu
