Island Fellows Program

Host a Fellow

Could your island or coastal community use a full-time, dedicated, committed young graduate to tackle a special community project?

 

Since 1999, the Island Institute has matched nearly 50 talented Island Fellows with communities requesting their help. Fellows have tackled projects that have included developing school curricula, creating arts programs, mapping community resources using GIS technology, leveraging assistance for small island-based businesses, conducting research projects or surveys, cataloging historical society and library collections, monitoring marine or other natural resources, finding the funding to build a new community center, and much more.

Although the Island Institute is not currently accepting applications to host Island Fellows in 2008, Chris Wolff, Community Development Director, would be happy to answer any questions you might have about the possibility of hosting a Fellow in 2009.  To the right, for future reference, are the current application forms; they will be revised in fall 2008.
