Environmental Justice Scholars Program – Oct 11

Posted by National Institutes of Health on September 3, 2024

The Environmental Justice (EJ) Scholars Program invites EJ expertise, knowledge, and skills from research scholars, academics, public health and healthcare professionals, and EJ leaders from community-based organizations to work with staff members at various Institutes, Centers, and Offices (ICOs). EJ Scholars will share their knowledge, skills, and lived experience to help inform, build, and strengthen NIH capacity in the field of environmental justice.

Environmental Justice scholars will be hosted by one or more NIH Institute, Center, or Office (ICO). During the program period, EJ scholars will collaborate with NIH staff on one or more research, education, or training relevant activities, contributing to the wider NIH community (see below). EJ scholars may partner with NIH intramural and/or extramural (grant funded) scientists on projects of shared interests.

Scholars are expected to dedicate up to 25% of their time for up to 10 months to support and collaborate with their host ICO(s). Scholars will work virtually, unless otherwise agreed upon with their host ICO(s). The scholar will work with the host ICO on the structure and terms of their work plan prior to position commencement.

Applications due October 11, 2024 at 11:59 PM.
