This is a 6-month paid internship that runs from January-June 2017. It offers a great opportunity for a current student or recent graduate of wildlife, natural resources, policy, and/or related programs to get hands on experience in DC, build relationships in the conservation community, and support wildlife professionals in achieving science-based management and conservation. Our ideal candidates have a strong wildlife education, previous engagement with TWS (student chapter/chapter/conference/etc.), demonstrated leadership and communication skills, and an interest in supporting the wildlife profession in the policy arena. We offer great exposure to a wide-breadth of wildlife policy issues, excellent networking with wildlife professionals across TWS and policy folks in DC, and opportunity to develop writing/communication and collaboration skills. Information on specific duties and qualifications is included in the attached PDF, and more information on TWS' Government Affairs program is available at www.wildlife.org/policy<http://www.wildlife.org/policy>. Applications must be submitted by 6 November 2016. Please contact me if you have any questions.
