[ES_JOBS_NET] Smithsonian Life on a Sustainable Planet Fellowships in Climate Change, Environmental Justice, and Resilience and Sustainability

[Caroline Nowlan]

*Climate Change Postdoctoral Fellowship*: The Smithsonian seeks to support
five fellows as they conduct independent research in the spirit of the
Smithsonian’s wide-ranging research effort and in support of the
Smithsonian’s goals to understand and inform solutions to climate change.
These fellows will be able to leverage the Smithsonian’s resources,
including its researchers, collections, exhibits, and data sets, to advance
scientific understanding of climate change and its impacts on nature and
human well-being.

*Environmental Justice Fellowship*: The Smithsonian seeks to support five
fellows as they conduct independent research on how climate change,
pollution, biodiversity loss, and other environmental challenges affect
everyone, but their impacts are felt most by those who are the most
vulnerable.  This includes historically underserved and marginalized
communities, especially communities of color. Fellows will be able to
leverage the Institution's vast resources and expertise to study
environmental injustice and inform potential solutions.


*Resilience and Sustainability Science Postdoctoral Fellowship*:  This
program is supported by the Adrienne Arsht Community-Based Resilience
Solutions Initiative. With primary advisors from STRI or the National
Museum of Natural History, fellows will work across several Smithsonian
units and outside partners to better understand resilience in people and
nature and strengthen connections between our collections and the latest
scientific innovations.


*For all Life on a Sustainable Planet Fellowships, applications are due
August 31, 2023*; awards will be notified in the Fall of 2023. Fellowships
will have a 2-year duration, will receive a $62,000/year stipend, and may
receive additional research support.


Climate Change, Environmental Justice, and Resilience and Sustainability
Fellows will form a cohort that will participate in hybrid training related
to leadership skill development, science communication, policy engagement,
effective transdisciplinary research techniques, and inclusive approaches
to research and equitable outcomes. This cohort-based training will support
fellows in connecting their research to action. The Smithsonian will
support travel for participation in the cohort-based training.
