Cecil Corbin-Mark Environmental Justice Fellowship

 

The Cecil Corbin-Mark Environmental Justice Fellowship is a joint initiative established by NYSERDA and the Harlem-based community organization WE ACT for Environmental Justice. The fellowship program was established in memory of Cecil Corbin-Mark’s dedication to fighting for climate and environmental justice for all. The fellowship provides an opportunity for qualified candidates to contribute to policy and program development, gain professional experience, and advance New York State’s climate equity goals. The fellowship aims to increase diversity in the clean energy sector by hiring candidates and providing career opportunities to individuals from underrepresented or frontline communities.

Fellows based at NYSERDA work in a cross-sector role to advance environmental and energy justice across NYSERDA and in coordination with community partners and other State agencies. The NYSERDA fellowship provides a year long, full-time opportunity and will be offered annually.
