Opportunity Information: Apply for P14AS00227
The George Melendez Wright Initiative for Young Leaders in Climate Change is a project aimed at engaging students in addressing climate change challenges within national parks. Managed by the University of Washington and funded through the National Park Service (NPS), this initiative emphasizes the importance of diverse perspectives and innovative solutions in managing public lands. The project, with a total anticipated funding of $211,000, is a continuation of a cooperative agreement and will run until January 30, 2017.
Interns participating in this program will work on specific projects related to climate change science, resource conservation, adaptation policy, and sustainable park operations. The initiative aims to provide students with real-world experience, mentoring, and leadership development, preparing them for potential future careers in federal service.
The NPS will play a crucial role by providing financial support, approving project proposals, and facilitating internship placements. The initiative also prioritizes outreach to minority-serving institutions to enhance diversity within the program.
Overall, this project is not a competitive grant opportunity but rather a strategic effort to extend and deepen collaborative research and training programs related to climate change within the national park system.Apply for P14AS00227
