CLIMATE CHANGE INTERN
Climate Change Intern
National Capital Region – 2nd Nature Program
Program Description – Intern would incorporate climate change activities into the meaningful park experiences and community projects produced by youth participating in the "2nd Nature" pilot partnership program with the National Park Service (NPS) and the Latin American Youth Center (LAYC). ‘2nd Nature’ will connect underserved urban youth to national parks through art and digital media. The creative abilities of 40 youth will be developed (during 10 weeks of summer 2010) through hands-on training while simultaneously deepening their understanding of critical issues related to their environment and heritage through facilitated day and overnight explorations to national parks in the National Capital Region (NCR), and other public lands such as state parks and city parks. Youth will reflect on their experiences through art, media and digital storytelling. Throughout the creative process youth will better connect with NCR parks and communicate these experiences with their friends, family, and community. Participants will develop their leadership skills, learn how to make action plans for sharing their projects with broader audiences, and tour their final art and media products in exhibits and public screenings. Intern will also participate on the Climate Change workgroup in the National Capital Region, and assist with the regional effort to develop a climate change internal and external communications plan.
Dates (Flexible – some leeway to adjust these) – May 25-August 14, 2010
