ATPS Research Fellowship Form
This application form can be completed by anyone whether you are members of the ATPS Network or not, provided that you are working on STI policy research related subjects. International experts who are not Africans and hence cannot be registered as members of the ATPS chapters in Africa but rather an associate of the Network can apply for the Research Fellowship.
Once the exercise is completed, we intend to share the full list with the ATPS Fellowship Selection Committee, which will comprise representatives from the Board, the Secretariat and the National Chapters, who would assist in short-listing a core team of Fellows under a number of categories which will be agreed by the committee.
Kindly email ATPS the filled form with your latest CV at your earliest convinience.
2008 Kinship Conservation Fellows Program
Bellingham, Washington
Applications are now open for the 2008 Kinship Conservation Fellows program located in Bellingham, Washington. Kinship is designed to equip select career conservationists with effective tools for solving environmental problems through market-based principles.
A month at Kinship is a rare opportunity for conservation professionals to explore new ideas and renew their inspiration for their work while learning from and collaborating with a truly exceptional group of Fellows and faculty. As one of the 2007 Fellows put it:
"I spend my life (luckily!) working in teams of committed, enthusiastic, intelligent, sympathetic, fun and creative people. It's normal for me. I'm used to it. But this group was something incredible."
Charlie Avis, 2007 Fellow:
"One Europe More Nature" Project Leader, WWF International
The 2008 program will take place from June 25-July 25 in Bellingham, Washington. Kinship will be accepting applications for the 2008 cohort through January 31, 2008. Applications should be submitted online. Eighteen Fellows will be selected to participate. Please visit the Kinship website at www.kinshipfellows.org for more information or to download a 2008 brochure and fact sheet.
Kinship is committed not only to establishing Kinship Conservation Fellows as the premier conservation leadership training program, but also to forging a dynamic community of environmental leaders. Kinship looks forward to your feedback and possible interest in joining this select group of individuals.
