Description
Southern Pulse is a
decentralized, field-based investigations organization focused on
security, politics, energy, and business in Latin America. Founded in
2004 by investigative journalist and author Samuel Logan, Southern Pulse
presents clients with reports and training courses sourced from the
ground up. This organization began as a private human intelligence
network in the Americas. Southern Pulse is now based in Annapolis,
Maryland, and runs its free online media monitoring service from
Washington, DC. Senior investigators operate from hubs in Mexico, El
Salvador, Colombia, Brazil, and Chile to leverage our network, unique
access, and deep understanding of the region to mitigate risk for public
and private sector clients with exposure to political, security,
financial, or legal risk in Latin America.
The
internship position(s) will focus you on a particular sub-region in
Latin America - Cent Am, the Andes, the Southern Cone, etc. - and
involve information gathering from online media sources in
Spanish/Portuguese, producing concise news feeds or "pulses" via a
weekly intel cycle, and contributing to other Southern Pulse content
collection and preparation.
The position is
conducted remotely and usually requires 10-15 hours/week; it is unpaid
but provides experience in analyzing geopolitical events in Latin
American, writing and editing, as well as access to the Southern Pulse
database and potential future opportunities with the company and
Southern Pulse partner organizations.
Qualifications
Applicants should be focused on Latin America
and be proficient in reading/translating Spanish-English; knowledge of
Portuguese may help. This unpaid internship is for a period of at least
three months, rolling application.
