The field of conservation is always in need of highly skilled and talented professionals who can offer diverse solutions to meet the most critical global environmental challenges of the 21st century and beyond. World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is committed to strengthening partnerships with historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) to recruit the next generation of scientists and conservationists. In partnering with HBCUs, WWF bridges opportunities for students and recent graduates to explore career paths in conservation from our organization’s programmatic and business operations functional groups. Attendees of this event will have the opportunity to speak directly with WWF experts, executive and senior staff, and other business and conservation professionals, all of whom will be on hand to provide information and answer questions. Breakfast and lunch will be provided.
This free, in-person event is proudly sponsored by WWF's People & Culture office and the Sustaining Active Black Leadership and Empowerment (SABLE) employee resource group. As the world's leading conservation organizations, WWF works to sustain the natural world for the benefit of people and wildlife, collaborating with partners from local to global levels in nearly 100 countries.
