Center Announces Sustainability Fellowship Program
Are you an aspiring sustainability professional with outstanding research
skills or a gift for persuasion? Are you a current graduate student? If so, we
want you!
The Equinox Center announces the continuation
of its Sustainability Fellowship Program, an opportunity for exemplary graduate
students to gain professional experience and academic credit working for one of
San Diego’s leading non-profit organizations at the intersection of
environment, economy and communities. Equinox is right now accepting applications
for fellowship openings for the 2013 summer period. Fellows will apply their
skills in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment where every team member
counts, and directly contribute toward helping the San Diego region become a
model for sustainable development.
Equinox Center is an independent, non-partisan, not for profit research and communications organization focused on how the San Diego region can achieve a more prosperous economy, healthy environment and outstanding quality of life for all its residents. Led by a distinguished board of directors representing business and community leaders from across the region, Equinox uses policy analysis, communications and convenings to inspire, inform and engage the public and decision makers in crafting bold and intelligent solutions to balance regional growth with finite natural resources.
Candidates will be considered for the following fellowship positions:
- Research Fellow — work under the direction of Equinox Center’s Executive Director to perform research and analysis on regional sustainability issues, in particular relating to our annual San Diego Regional Quality of Life Dashboard.
- Communications Fellow — work under the direction of Equinox Center’s Director of Communications to leverage traditional, online and social media channels to bring to life Equinox Center’s core issue areas—inspiring and motivating the public and decision makers to take decisive action toward achieving a more sustainable future for the region.
Applications for the summer fellowship are due to Equinox Center no later than April 19, 2013.
