Sustainability
Conceived by Dr. Michael Ben-Eli, founder of The Sustainability Laboratory, the Global Sustainability Fellows (GSF) program is The Lab’s graduate-level educational initiative, designed to inspire, prepare, and mobilize new sustainability leaders to tackle the urgent sustainability issues facing the planet. Our program promotes system thinking, collaborative, interdisciplinary approaches to addressing sustainability issues, and combines an intensive theoretical orientation and classroom component with hands-on, experience-based learning, extensive fieldwork, and international and cross-disciplinary exposure.
The “Call for Fellows” is open to US and international participants with diverse backgrounds who demonstrate a deep commitment to sustainability and have outstanding experience working on sustainability issues. Applicants should have a master’s degree or be currently enrolled in a master’s program and should enjoy and appreciate teamwork. Applicants with outstanding experience in their field or with relevant backgrounds, regardless of formal education, will also be considered.
