internship at UNOPS in Copenhagen

The UN is looking for a translation intern for the Communications Unit of UNOPS headquarters in Copenhagen for an October start. Applicants must be French native speakers translating from English and maybe Spanish as well. The internship is expected to last 4-6 months from October and is unpaid. The deadline for applications is 30 September.

Am forwarding this because it sounds like excellent work experience for the right candidate, but I am slightly wondering who would possibly be able to afford to work for free for 4-6 months, even with the promise of a greatly enhanced CV afterwards...? Hmmm. Any thoughts from readers of this blog, on internships, paid, partly paid or otherwise...?
