Gain real world experience in sustainability with the Women Sustainability Forum and its global network, wherever you are.
International Fellowships
Availability · Ad hoc
Location · Remote
WSF Fellowships are ad hoc opportunities that bring field work to your desktop. Designed for students and recent graduates, they offer hands on experience in how large projects shape the social, economic and environmental life of local communities, and in sustainability and sustainable development more broadly.
Fellows carry out rigorous research and consultancy work in developing contexts, helping build the case for the links between business, sustainability, sustainable development and climate change. They also contribute to quarterly publications developed by the Forum and its partners. Fellows receive a certificate at the end of their Fellowship.
What we look for
- A willingness to take an active part in a global movement
- Collaboration with colleagues across regions, countries and cultures
- Coauthoring publications and taking part in public engagements
- Helping to grow the Forum’s global networks
How to apply
Fellowships are offered on an ad hoc basis. To express your interest, send us a short CV and a one page motivation letter.
