ActSEA (Action for Change in Southeast Asia) – Human Resources Intern

ActSEA contributes to an equitable and sustainable Southeast Asia by nurturing leaders who are empowered to effect change and amplify impact. ActSEA is sector agnostic. Our path is driven by the aspiration and needs of the communities we work with. Thus, we have worked on different areas (public health, environment, livelihoods, education, gender, disaster response) and utilised different approaches (community development, behaviour change, research, advocacy, research, capacity building).
