Overview of Internship:
Intern(s) could participate in a range of activities, including:
- Preparation of a report, Lessons Learned: Case Studies of Strategic Land Use, which contains advice provided by ULI experts to local governments in the area of affordable housing and/or urban revitalization. The case studies will be drawn from ULI’s technical assistance panels (TAPs) prepared by ULI members in District Councils in cities across the country. Preparation for this report will involve researching, curating, and analyzing the recommendations of the TAPs and writing a user-friendly report for dissemination to the global ULI membership.
- Documentation of ULI programming and initiatives that inform public officials about best practices for building healthy thriving communities. This documentation will involve interviewing ULI District Council staff about specific programs, collecting examples of materials and reports, and writing a step-by-step operational guide that will facilitate replication of successful programming by other District Councils for public-sector engagement in ULI.
- Assistance with other administrative projects for managing a national network of 50 offices run by ULI staff.
