Job Description
Salary: $18.07/hour
ABOUT THE CENTER
The Center for Biological Diversity, a national 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, believes the welfare of human beings is deeply linked to nature — to the existence of a vast diversity of wild animals, plants and people. Because diversity has intrinsic value, and because its loss impoverishes society, we work to secure a future for all species, great and small, hovering on the brink of extinction. We do so through science, law, activism and creative media, with a focus on protecting the lands, waters and climate that humans, other species and all communities need to survive and thrive.
We want those who come after us to inherit a world where the wild is still alive.
POSITION SUMMARY
The Center for Biological Diversity’s Southwest program seeks motivated and organized interns dedicated to protecting biodiversity and preventing species extinctions. Interns will work with Center scientists to gain protections for imperiled species. The internship is paid and will provide valuable experience with one of the nation’s most consequential environmental organizations. This position will last approximately 4-6 months (exact length to be negotiated), can be full- or part-time, and can either be remote or located at our office in Tucson (AZ).
