Call for fwllowship applications: 2017 Kinship's global network of conservation leaders

Published on  
We're looking for conservation leaders with at least five years of experience, who are deeply committed to conservation, involved with the implementation of market-based approaches to solve environmental problems, and ready to be part of an expanding community of global leaders.

A key part of the Fellows application is a proposed project describing an environmental issue related to the applicant's work and the plans to develop a solution using market approaches.

Successful applicants will be familiar with business and economic principles and work in a setting where these principles can be integrated with conservation work. 18 applicants are selected to participate in the training program.

In order to be considered for the program, applicants must meet the following requirements:
  1. Possess a minimum of a four-year U.S. college degree (or its overseas equivalent).
  2. Have a minimum of five years relevant work experience, after your degree.
  3. Be proficient in spoken and written English.
  4. Be a conservation practitioner (rather than an academic or researcher).
Applications for the 2017 program will be accepted from November 1, 2016 - January 16, 2017
