2. What You’ll Be Doing

The internship is aimed at creatives interested in contributing to 2035 Africa's work around African poetry, books, news and related creative projects.

Depending on the area you bring to the organisation, your experience could involve creative writing, content creation, storytelling, research, editorial work, communications or other creative tasks.

4. Skills & Experience That Can Help

When applying for a creative internship, don't only think about formal job titles. Think about what you've actually done.

  • Creative writing
  • Content creation
  • Copywriting
  • Storytelling
  • Social media content
  • Research and writing
  • Editing and proofreading
  • Digital publishing
  • Video or multimedia content
  • Community or audience engagement

If you're more interested in digital and technology careers, GabbyWall also features opportunities such as the Backend Engineer role, AI Architect opportunity and Remote Learning Engineer role.

💡 CV tip: Don't simply write “good communication skills.” Show evidence. For example: “Created and published weekly social media content” is much stronger because it tells an employer what you actually did.

5. How to Prepare Your CV

Your CV should make it easy for the person reviewing your application to understand what you can contribute.

Build your CV around your creative skills, relevant projects, writing, content creation and other experience related to the creative field.

A simple structure to follow

  • Profile: A short introduction explaining what you do and what you're looking for.
  • Skills: Highlight relevant creative and technical skills.
  • Projects: Include personal, academic, freelance or volunteer projects.
  • Experience: Include internships, freelance work, volunteering and employment.
  • Portfolio: Add links to relevant work where possible.
  • Education: Include relevant academic qualifications or training.

If you're also applying for content-focused roles, take a look at the Content Strategist opportunity, Copywriter opportunity and Social Media Associate role.

💡 CV tip: Tailor your CV to the opportunity. A CV written specifically for a creative internship will usually be more convincing than one generic CV sent to every employer.
💡 Remote-job tip: For remote roles, clearly show tools you can use, how you communicate online and examples of work you've completed independently.
