Data Science Internship
The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is an international organisation
comprised of 38 member countries, that works to build better policies for better lives. Our mission is to
promote policies that will improve the economic and social well-being of people around the world.
Together with governments, policy makers and citizens, we work on establishing evidence-based
international standards, and finding solutions to a range of social, economic and environmental
challenges.
The Centre for Entrepreneurship, SMEs, Regions and Cities (CFE) works together with national,
regional and local governments to strengthen regional, urban and rural policies. The Statistics and
Territorial Analysis unit at the CFE supports evidence-based policies to improve people's well-being
and sustainable development in all regions and cities through designing and producing new indicators,
visualisation tools and analyses, and promoting the use of territorial indicators in all phases of
policymaking.
We are looking for a motivated Data science student with a solid quantitative and programming profile
to support the work of the Geospatial unit of the OECD. The successful candidate will contribute to the
production of territorial indicators for the OECD Regional, Metropolitan and Municipal databases –
including related projects connected to regional, local, urban and rural development – through the use
of both conventional and unconventional data sources and methods.
• Available for a minimum period of six months – starting as soon as possible, from April 2024;
• Enjoy working in a multicultural and international team environment.
