Overview

Fellows engage in hands-on, real world environmental work involving community outreach, advocacy, policy analysis, public speaking, and event planning. More importantly, fellows will have the opportunity to serve and better their communities by working to improve environmental conservation within a grassroots organization.

Candidates must be flexible, have access to a computer, provide their own transportation, and be currently enrolled in undergraduate or graduate school.  

Responsibilities

The fellow will work closely with staff and local members to further the goals of the Clean Water Campaign. As a fellow, you will gain experience in coordinating events, understand the structure of a grassroots campaign, and use social media and public outreach to raise awareness and achieve goals. There will also be an opportunity to oversee independent projects, and influence decision makers within the framework of the campaign.

Fellows work with their supervising staff member to develop a work plan that outlines their goals and responsibilities. Work plans include an educational component that is linked to the academic work the fellow is undertaking.

Fellows should expect to work 8 to 16 hours per week.
