Host an Intern

Built in Nairobi.
Connected to Europe.

Ed-Afric was founded by Kenyan professionals who understand both sides of this equation — the hunger of African companies for global perspectives, and the ambition of European students who want more than a standard summer internship.

"Africa is not a destination for charity. It's the world's next great business frontier — and your internship should reflect that."

We believe international experience should go both ways. Nairobi gives students real private-sector exposure in a fast-moving economy. Host companies gain fresh thinking from globally trained talent.
