Nasio Recognised As Gold Standard Internship Host By Oxford University For 2023
January 2024

As many of you may already be aware, we regularly invite interns from Oxford University to come and spend a few weeks with us at The Nasio Trust.

Over the years, these groups have been able to come up with some amazing ideas that have helped us to take the charity further in the ongoing fight against breaking the cycle of poverty.

We’re delighted to announce that we have once again been named as a Gold Standard Internship Host by Oxford University in recognition of the excellent internship experience our organisation has provided Oxford students through the Oxford University Summer Internship Programme.

We would like to thank Oxford University, as well as all the interns we have had the pleasure of working with since we started running the scheme.
