California Sea Grant Seeking Applications for 2023 Delta Science Communication Fellowship

Delta Science Communication Fellowship

California Sea Grant is soliciting applications for a 2023 Delta Science Communication Fellow in partnership with the Delta Stewardship Council’s Delta Science Program.

The fellowship provides a unique educational opportunity for an early career science communicator to gain hands-on experience in coastal, estuarine, and freshwater science communication and stakeholder engagement. The fellow will be advised by professional science writers and editors, and have access to science communicators around the country through the Sea Grant Communications Network. The fellow will primarily produce content that highlights scientific research findings on high-priority topics that are critical to managing the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta.

The Delta Stewardship Council is the California State agency that manages how the Delta provides a reliable water supply for California while protecting, restoring, and enhancing its ecosystem. The Delta is part of the largest estuary on the west coast of North and South America and is home to more than 750 plant and animal species. The Delta also supplies drinking water for more than 27 million residents, which is about two-thirds of Californians. The fellow will help share the Delta’s story.

This 12-month paid fellowship will be based at California Sea Grant in San Diego and starts in July 2023.

Applications are due April 3 by 5 p.m. PT.
