Launching the latest conservation fellowship program

The Park Institute is excited to announce that it has been selected by the National Parks Conservation Association to help launch the inaugural NPCA Conservation Data & Communications Fellowship. This summer learning experience will be administered by the Park Institute and is exclusively available to select graduate students enrolled in Duke University's Nicholas School of the Environment.

Two Nic School students will have the unique opportunity to spend 12 weeks directly contributing to the country's highest priority 30x30 landscapes. Working with NPCA's Conservation Science team under the direction of Senior Program Manager Nik Moy, fellows will study and learn organization's approach to collecting, analyzing, and communicating conservation data to support regional teams' policy objectives. Equipped with this foundation, fellows will apply NPCA's data representation principles to individually assigned park landscapes.
