As described in our <a href="https://www.agci.org/SpanningBoundaries" class="">Strategic Plan</a>, the goals of the Institute are to further understanding of human and Earth systems, catalyze solutions at speed and scale, and nurture diverse and inclusive community across research and practice. This includes work on topics such as climate change, energy technology and policy, natural resource management, and science policy. AGCI programs include interdisciplinary workshops, cross-cutting research, and technical assistance to practitioners implementing solutions to global change. Running through the Institute’s DNA is a strong institutional commitment to excellence in science that is actionable and inclusive. AGCI was founded in 1989 and is a Colorado-based 501(c)(3) organization that supports staff and partners working to implement a mission that is international in scope yet grounded in local contexts and problem domains. As an "Institute Without Walls," AGCI staff and consultants are based in Colorado, Michigan, Massachusetts, Maine, New Hampshire, Washington, and Oregon.</p><p class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1.25rem; padding: 0px; font-family: Georgia, Cambria, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; line-height: 1.6; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial;"><strong class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Specific Job Responsibilities </strong></p><p class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1.25rem; padding: 0px; font-family: Georgia, Cambria, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; line-height: 1.6; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial;">We anticipate hiring two positions to work on a range of projects (illustrated below) that will be distributed according to candidates’ background. <strong class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Please consider applying, even if you only feel qualified for some, but not all of the responsibilities listed below:</strong></p><p class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1.25rem; padding: 0px; font-family: Georgia, Cambria, "Times New Roman", Times, serif; line-height: 1.6; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-variant-ligatures: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial;"><span class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-style: italic; line-height: inherit;"><strong class="" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: inherit;">Development of a Colorado River Science wiki,</strong> </span>a web-based clearinghouse for scientific and technical information and data relevant to water and natural resource management.
