Happy 4^th and hope everyone enjoys the long weekend!

festival for the new fellowships, please do!! 😊

*Smithsonian Fellowships Focus on Climate Change and Environmental Justice*

Our planet faces unprecedented and interrelated crises of climate 
change, biodiversity loss, and a global pandemic. Nationally, the United 
States is also confronting our complicated history and legacy of race 
and racism. As the largest museum, education, and research complex -- 
with 23 museums, numerous research centers, and the National Zoological 
Park -- the Smithsonian’s vast collections, exhibits, current and 
historical data sets, and in-house expertise provide a unique 
opportunity to inform interdisciplinary approaches and solutions to many 
of these challenges.

Through a new initiative, Our Shared Future: Life on a Sustainable 
Planet, the Smithsonian aims to advance solutions that fill us with 
optimism for our planet and all species that call our planet home. As 
part of this initiative, the Smithsonian is launching two new fellowship 
programs: Smithsonian Climate Change Fellowship

Each program will support a 
cohort of 2-5 fellows for a period of two years. Fellows will receive a

projects that have the potential to produce rapid results and impact are 
especially encouraged to apply.
