The Islamic Cooperation Youth Forum (ICYF) is pleased to announce the opening of applications for the ICYF Internship Program 2026 in Turkey. This international internship opportunity is open to international university students currently based in Istanbul who are eager to gain practical experience in a multicultural professional environment.
The ICYF Internship Program offers students the chance to translate academic knowledge into real-world practice while working alongside a diverse and dynamic team. Interns will benefit from hands-on professional exposure, skill development, and meaningful networking opportunities that can support their future careers.
In accordance with ICYF regulations, all selected interns will receive food and transportation allowances, along with one month of vacation during the internship period. Upon successful completion of the program—subject to full attendance and satisfactory performance—participants will be awarded an official Internship Certificate.
Interns may be placed in key departments such as the International Project Department, which plays a central role in developing youth policies for Muslim youth in line with the OIC Youth Strategy. This department is responsible for designing project concepts, organizing ICYF programs, and overseeing their implementation in collaboration with internal teams and external partners.
Another core placement is the Education and Training Department, which focuses on advancing educational development through the Model OIC (MOIC) Program. This department works to implement MOIC simulations by establishing MOIC clubs across OIC member states and within Muslim minority communities, fostering leadership, diplomacy, and global engagement among youth.
