Start your career with an unforgettable experience! Emagister presents you with an exciting Environmental Education internship program, offered by the Archipelagos Center, Institute of Marine Conservation.
For almost two decades, Archipelagos has been providing environmental education lessons to schools and communities in the islands of the East Aegean Sea. It is a non-profit contribution of researchers working in Archipelagos, which is considered the largest investment that can be made to ensure the development of critical thinking and environmental awareness of the younger generation.
Environmental education and awareness activities are designed to target various target groups, in the many islands where Archipelagos is active. The purpose of these activities is the participation of local communities in various aspects of marine and terrestrial conservation and sustainability, including wildlife conservation, awareness of microplastics in the environment and protection of the natural environment.
We invite you to be part of this education program! We need your important help to achieve our goals. If you are interested in knowing more about this program, please request more information through Emagister to help you.
