Kinship Conservation invites the best and the brightest practitioners in their field to its Fellowship opportunity. The curriculum is delivered by a faculty of global experts who work closely with each carefully selected cohort of Fellows to explore new ways to apply market-based approaches to environmental issues. Using a case study methodology, Fellows will identify new solutions to real-life conservation challenges. Over the course of the month, Fellows attend dynamic sessions, participate in collaborative and independent projects, and attend field trips. Kinship Fellows will join a community of practitioners, where they continue to network and collaborate to address environmental challenges. The global network of 282 Fellows in 51 countries across 7 continents is collaborative, innovative, and dedicated to effective conservation. Fellows bring home new ideas, tools, and inspiration. Their success benefits their organizations and the greater conservation community.

Eligibility:

  1. You must have at least five years of on the ground experience, which 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.
  2. You should have a proposed project describing an environmental issue related to the applicant's work and the plans to develop a solution using market approaches.
  3. You should 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.
  4. Possess a minimum of a four-year U.S. college degree (or its equivalent).
  5. Be proficient in spoken and written English.
  6. Be a conservation practitioner (rather than an academic or researcher).
  7. Applicants who meet the above requirements will be evaluated in the following areas:
  • Proposed project viability and appropriateness.
  • Leadership potential.
  • Potential contribution at the Fellowship program and ongoing membership in the Fellows Community.

Funding:

If you are accepted at this fellowship opportunity, you will receive a month of valuable training and a $6,000 stipend.
