Meet the Team
The Humanitarian Internship Program is supported by a cross-functional core team who lead the creation, implementation, and day-to-day execution of the program. This team brings together staff from key offices across the university to ensure students have a meaningful, well-supported experience. In addition to this core group, a broader steering committee composed of faculty and staff from across GW provides strategic guidance and support for the program’s development.
