The program is focused on creating a vibrant, pan-African health innovation ecosystem through a diverse offering of health-related programs. Examples include, but are not limited to: an incubation program for early-stage startups, a summer research program for MPH and PhD candidates, and a countrywide fellowship program for young global health leaders. The intern would report to the Director of Health Innovation and create a strategic communications plan for the program, along with key assets such as pitch deck and press release templates.

PEN’s curriculum utilizes locally-available materials to form activities that align with national standards. Over the last 3 years, PEN has trained 2,500 Ghanaian teachers and 100 local-level trainers in this experiential approach. To intern for PEN is to join a nimble team, which includes an American MIT alum and Ghanaians- all passionate about hands-on learning.

By developing an approach to improve PEN's social and public presence, the intern's work has the potential to amplify PEN's impact.
