We are pleased to announce that the Activist Institute will be launching in the spring with a fellowship program for summer interns in the Washington DC area. The program will be catered towards students with an interest in the environment, sustainability and energy issues who want to work towards making their passion a future career. The fellowship will include weekly activities like field trips, lectures, panels, and networking events and one weekend activity per month. The fellows will receive training in community organizing and advocacy work and will learn how to implement sustainable practices into their own life. Over the course of the summer they will grow as a team and become a close group of young people confronting today's daunting issues.

Are you a nonprofit (or do you work for a nonprofit) in the DC-area that works on energy or sustainability issues?  Want to share your vision with the next generation's progressive leaders? Become a nonprofit partner! We’d love to work with you on an event or a field trip.

Are you interning this summer in the DC-area? Interested in becoming a fellow? Send us an email at info@activistinstitute.org and we’ll put you on a list to receive information about the fellowship as soon as its ready.
