Paid summer internship opportunity for students in Education!

Hi there,

My name is Miranda and I work for the Foundation for Environmental Stewardship, a youth-led, youth-serving Canadian non-profit and registered charity.

Currently, we're looking for an undergraduate student to support us in the research, development, and launch of our new educational program called Net-Zero Climate Solutions Portal. This program serves to educate youth and families on net-zero climate solutions through educators and community partnerships, leading to the implementation of relevant high-impact net-zero projects and climate resilient communities.

We are looking to hire a "Net-Zero Education Coordinator" from May 31st - August 31st, 2023. This position is remote, full-time (35 hours / week) and the successful candidate will be compensated $20.00 a hour. The Education Coordinator will perform research, outreach, partnership management and content development, while also handling some administrative tasks as necessary. 

Posting can be found here. 

We will begin reviewing applications next Monday, May 15th. Interested applicants can send their resume and cover letter to admin@fesplanet.org.
