Youth Climate Fellows work to support VEEP/NHEEP’s Energy and Climate Action programs, including our Youth Climate Leaders Academy. They work in close coordination with the Energy Action Projects Manager to support energy and climate projects in Vermont/New Hampshire. This could mean offering support to other projects or teams, spearheading their own climate projects, or a combination of both. Ideally Youth Climate Fellows will have experience with climate action projects and be familiar with or have participated in the Youth Climate Leaders Academy, as the Fellows will have a considerable role in planning and executing that event. Here is a link to the full job description. To apply, please send a letter of interest to Mariah Keagy ([email protected]).
