Spiritual Ecology Fellowship: Founded in 2015, the Spiritual Ecology Fellowship is an initiative of Kalliopeia Foundation. The fellowship supports emerging young leaders and innovators who recognize the need to create a future that is not driven by materialism and greed, but rooted in the spiritual values of reverence for nature, stewardship, interconnectedness, compassion and service. The program is designed to offer an experience of deep study and practical application of the principles of spiritual ecology. A central component of the fellowship will be the development and implementation of pilot projects that have the potential to be catalysts for change.

Description: The fellowship follows a 9-month program and will consist of 8 selected participants, all of whom will receive full scholarships for program tuition and a $10,000 stipend to assist with project development. All travel, food and lodging for retreats will be provided at no cost. Successful and viable projects will be eligible for incubation and potential seed funding consideration via the Kalliopeia Foundation incubator program upon completion of the fellowship. Application deadline: March 15, 2017

Fellowship: 2017 Switzer Graduate Environmental Fellowships (deadline 1/9/17)

Posted on by

The application process for the 2017 Switzer Environmental Fellowships is now open. Switzer Fellowships are given to top graduate students in New England and California who demonstrate outstanding leadership potential, and who are committed to a career in environmental improvement. The deadline for applications is January 9, 2017.

The fellowship provides:
– a one-year $15,000 cash award;
-access to other Switzer grant program and long-term career support, and
-membership in the Switzer Fellowship Network, an active and engaged community of nearly 600 environmental leaders in the U.S. and around the world.

Switzer Fellows are recognized environmental leaders working in the non-profit, public policy, academic and business communities. We invite you to check the News and Issues pages of our website to see the breadth of issues and caliber of work that our Fellows are doing!

This year we are particularly interested in seeing more applications from students of color and traditionally underrepresented groups, and those whose work encompasses an environmental justice or equity component. We are also interested in increasing the number of master’s-level students who apply for the Fellowship. Please refer to the Fellowships guidelines on the website:
