Team

It was wonderful working with Team Planet Hope once again. There were a lot of things I learnt as an intern. Though it was online the tasks and activities were interesting and engaging and helped me gain a lot as a person in the professional sense. Cheers to this amazing experience.

Everything’s has been online ever since the pandemic started. I thought I wouldn’t get good exposure as my classes were also online, but everything changed after joining Planet Hope. I got the best exposure visiting fishing communities and Tsunami affected communities. It was surreal interviewing Tsunami affected families. I would forever be grateful for the excellent learning experience I got through Planet Hope.

This is my first internship at an organisation, I had a vast exposure in various different communities with accurate guidance by a supervisor. Through intervention projects of Planet Hope I could acquire a lot of knowledge and groom myself as a good professional social worker and a better person while communicating with people and understanding them.

Through this online internship at Planet Hope, I as an intern have learnt so much and have opened up to many experiences, worked efficiently not only with the work assigned by the agency but also worked on a lot of personal up-gradation with emphasis on communication. Thank you to the agency for helping incubate these skills and knowledge that will serve as a reminder for a lifetime as a cooperative worker. I have learnt so much not just as an intern but as a person, though the internship was online, I’ve tried to help amplify the work that the organisation does.

At Planet Hope, Netherlands where I got to intern with the Bangalore team, the overall experience was excellent. I got to see how an NGO works and how various roles were important. As an HR student, I got involved in multiple Administrative functions, from working on leave tracker and job description and aided with propels for employee engagement activity, social inclusion practices at the workspace, training and development sessions, and the EPA module. I got to see the community outreach program. The employee job satisfaction mini project was conducted where most of the employees are satisfied with their work. During this one month. I could not have asked for a more rewarding experience. I am incredibly grateful for the practical experience in the field of HR. This was a great learning experience for me because, after my internship, I concluded that this was something I could see myself doing as a career.
