About This Opportunity
Maryland Sea Grant is seeking a bilingual, biliterate (Spanish-English) intern to expand capacity in community engagement, environmental literacy, and workshop development, particularly with Maryland's Spanish-speaking communities. The internship focuses on learning about and sharing community priorities on coastal issues, working on science adoption and tool utilization applicable for community priorities, and investigating how outreach can best foster behavior change in terms of mitigation and adaptation to climate change impacts. As part of the internship, participants will pursue 2-3 special projects, participate in several professional development trainings, and contribute to the administration of the main office. The internship term is for one year as a full-time, 40-hour per week position at Maryland Sea Grant's office in College Park, Maryland. The intern will act as a community liaison, help determine best practices in community outreach, assist with current community engagement and co-production projects, assist in climate and coastal resilience themed workshops, and support Maryland Sea Grant's role in the built environment community. The internship includes direct supervision and mentorship from both Maryland Sea Grant and ecoLatinos, Inc.
