IPI, a Trust registered in Hyderabad, India aims to promote policies of freedom in India. Started in 1998 to debate policy, it now publishes an occasional policy magazine and aims ultimately to publish policy monographs and journals to inform policy debate in India from the classical liberal perspective. It also hopes to launch a grassroots activity based movement for freedom called Adharshila.
Hello,
My name is Megha Wadhwani and I am a student at the University of Toronto pursuing an Honours BA in Political Science. I am currently conducting a project for the U of T School of Public Policy and Governance in which I’m researching internships in the area of public policy. There seems to be a lack of positions in this field for students, which is why I am creating a database that outlines the opportunities available.
One of the areas I’m researching is positions for students in Canada looking for policy work in India. India and Canada have a lot to offer each other and given the similarities they have, they can learn a lot from each other. I know that the India Policy Institute conducts a significant amount of policy work in India and I was wondering if you would have any positions available for Canadian students? I would really appreciate any
help you can provide me with, even if it is just pointing me in the right direction.
Thank you so much for your time and consideration. I hope to hear from you soon.
Regards,
Megha Wadhwani
1Thanks Megha
IPI is a primarily a public policy dissemination institute, not policy research institute. It is also run by volunteers, in the virtual space, with no ground level presence. So we don’t have internship opportunities. However, we would welcome articles for our magazine, India Policy Update.
I will write to you separately re: alternative places to explore. In particular, the CCS. More later.
Regards
