“My internship with EcoPeace played an important role in my professional development. I not only interacted with inspiring young people, but also political figures and emerging scholars dedicated to building peace through environmental advocacy.”
Emily Kenward2021
“I have greatly appreciated the fact that EcoPeace strives to maximize the skills of their interns, and this experience working to support grassroots activism and campaigns has provided me with many new ideas for programming and discussion to bring back to my work in DC"
Sarah Huckins2017
“The intersectionality of EcoPeace’s work, bridging gaps between environmentalism and peace advocacy, and Israel, Palestine, and Jordan, should become a paradigm. Coming away from the experience, I have thought to address issues such as poverty, or the environment, or conflict not as isolated cases but as opportunities to improve and form a cohesive ecosystem.”
