[ES_JOBS_NET] State Department/EPA Embassy Air Quality Fellowship

[Christine Wiedinmyer]

*Apply Now for State Department/EPA Embassy Air Quality Fellowship*

Applications are now being accepted for a joint U.S. Department of State 
(DOS) and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) air quality 
monitoring fellowship.  This fellowship is a vital component of State 
and EPA’s collaborative efforts to help improve the availability of 
continuous air quality data worldwide.  In 2016, the DOS/EPA program 
will provide data from 24 U.S. embassies and consulates overseas to 
EPA’s AirNow <http://airnow.gov>platform.

The fellows will volunteer for one year of collaborative technical 
and/or policy support for an “adopted” US embassy that is implementing 
an air quality monitoring program.  The fellow is expected to provide 
10-20 hours of virtual support monthly to their host embassy.  There may 
be opportunities for paid overseas travel to visit the embassy, 
collaborate with the host foreign government, and provide training to US 
staff and other entities.  Fellows will not require or obtain a security 
clearance for this program. Fellows will remain at their home offices 
and agencies, except for potential travel to the embassy. /Please note 
that this is a separate opportunity than the Embassy Science Fellowship 
program./

*Eligibility:*

·Applicants should have air quality monitoring expertise and/or 
understanding of PM2.5 policy efforts and health impacts. Applicants 
should understand US policy for air pollution control and monitoring.

·Applicants should get supervisor approval to apply for and join this 
program.

·Employees of governments and universities are especially encouraged to 
apply, but all applications are welcome.

*All applications must be received by April 8, 2016. * The application
