Canadian Urban Institute Philippines Internship

I am interning at the Canadian Urban Institute - Philippines (CUI-P) office, working primarily under the Urban and Regional Planning Program (URPP), assisting in developing seven topical modules that will serve as introductory workbooks for local government units throughout the region. Jed, my illustrious and well-read co-intern, and I are tasked with assisting, supporting and encouraging working professionals, who have been assigned to specific modules, to complete all seven workbooks by a quickly approaching deadline, July 31. In addition to that, I am to write three articles that correspond to three of the module topics for internal publication in the CUI-P Leadership Series. The great part about this project is that we get to meet and work with local planners and from them learn about regional best practices and planning processes.
