Founded by a bipartisan group of members of Congress, the nonprofit Environmental and Energy Study Institute (EESI) has been working since 1984 to advance science-based solutions for climate change, energy, and environmental challenges in order to achieve our vision of a sustainable, resilient, and equitable world.
EESI is committed to building a community of staff, board members, advisors, donors, interns, fellows and volunteers, and partners that holds diversity, equity, and inclusion as core values.
About the Communications Internship
As our communications intern, you will make significant contributions towards the advancement of critical environmental and energy policies. During the internship, you will have the opportunity to curate our social media accounts, write articles, interview experts, create infographics, help research white papers, and make videos—all while learning about energy and environmental policy.
You will join a committed and friendly team dedicated to helping you succeed both in the internship and beyond as you launch a career in the environmental and energy field. We will work with you to develop semester projects that take your interests into account. As part of the internship experience, we hold weekly professional development sessions with EESI staff and guests from various sectors. Guest speakers have included representatives from government agencies, graduate programs, and international organizations.
