Apply today for EPI’s Alumni Awards!
Each year, EPI honors three of our past students via EPI’s Alumni Awards for Conservation Leadership. These awards recognize exceptional youth who want to continue to make a positive difference in the world through conservation and science.
These awards encourage young people to advance their education and/or work on critical conservation issues.
Prizes will be awarded to three individuals whose proposals best demonstrate the potential to positively affect an important conservation issue of the candidate’s choice.
The award could be used to implement an independent project or to fund participation in an already existing program in a conservation-related field. Special consideration will be given to projects with cross-cultural components; however, this is not a requirement of the award.
There are three award levels:
o $500: Conservation Leader
o $250: Explorer
o $100: Rising Star
To apply, you must submit the following:
- A cover letter
- Completed application
- Your most recent school transcripts
- Three letters of recommendation from academic, work, or personal contacts who can attest to your potential for success in your chosen project
All applications must be postmarked on or before January 31, 2012. We cannot accept incomplete or late applications.
