Intern Projects
Interns use research & analysis to rethink the way we do things and undo the ‘business as usual’ thinking that has caused so many of the current crises. In the process, they raise awareness and help create a more sustainable future even as they gain hands-on experience developing solutions.
Summer 2019– This summer, six interns (from Cedar Crest, Lafayette, Lehigh, & Shippensburg) have been working on Climate Action Planning and Sustainability for Independent Cafés, Restaurants, & Brewpubs. (Their reports will be available soon.)
Check our current internship opportunities page for information on upcoming internships!
If you are interested in an internship or would like more information, contact internship coordinator Peter Crownfield as soon as possible!
