Fellowships available for Latino Sustainability Initiative

The Higher Education Association Sustainability Consortium (HEASC) seeks applicants for two national Fellow positions to work on a new initiative entitled “Latino Leadership for a Sustainable Future.” This HEASC initiative is being launched in collaboration with the Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities (HACU).

The initiative will explore the connections between traditional cultures and sustainability values, as well as increase Hispanic/Latino participation and leadership roles in creating a sustainable future.

The Fellows positions require a commitment of approximately three hours per week and will:

  • Develop a narrative connecting the values of Latino cultures and sustainability
  • Compile a list of resources for use on campuses
  • Help write articles and digital messages to disseminate information throughout higher education
  • Work in collaboration with Dr. Debra Rowe, director of the HEASC fellows program
