About the Creator
I’m Rowena Lancaster, a South African career advisor and education advocate with over a decade of experience working with universities and youth development programs. After seeing too many talented graduates struggle to find their first break, I started African Internship News to create a trusted, centralized source for opportunity-driven information — free from hype and filled with real, actionable leads.
Why This Website Exists
Too many internships go unnoticed. Too many young people miss chances because information is scattered, outdated, or locked behind paywalls. I built this site because I believe opportunity shouldn’t depend on who you know — it should be accessible to anyone with drive and determination. Every listing we publish is checked for legitimacy. Every article is written with the reader’s needs in mind.
Our Values
We are committed to:
- Accuracy: Every internship is verified before publication.
- Accessibility: All information is free and easy to understand.
- Empowerment: We don’t just list jobs — we help you succeed in them.
- Integrity: We never accept payment to feature listings.
