Digital Content Creator in a Social Startup – Internship

About BE YOU NETWORK
We create engaging actions and mindset-shifting content, so that gender norms no longer define who you are, who you can love, or what you can achieve. Since 2010, whether in the fields of education, audiovisual, technology or art, our participative actions have enabled more than 250,000 people to take part in the change, in more than 60 cities in Switzerland and across the world. Our work has been recognized by the Swiss Confederation, the Mercator Foundation, the World Economic Forum, Ashoka, MassChallenge, Le Temps, Venture, Venture Kick, and the Female Founders Summit.

The project that you’ll be working on
BØWIE Creators: A community platform where queer and feminist people from around the globe have access to curated content and products from worldwide creators reshaping gender through film, fashion, art, music & more. More information on our Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/bowiecreators/

BØWIE Incubator: A 6-month programme that allows anyone to launch a gender and LGBTIQ+ project, surrounded by a community that provides inspiration, skills, and support (e.g. business development, project management, communication and marketing, fundraising, networking).

You are comfortable in social contacts, are eager to get in touch with the creators that we support, and looking forward to hearing their stories

You are naturally proactive and full of ideas that you can’t wait to share with us
You want to live the exciting adventure of an entrepreneurial project with a young and experienced team that’s neither afraid of hard work nor of afterworks to relax
