**About the B.C. Wildlife Federation**

The B.C. Wildlife Federation (BCWF) is British Columbia’s leading conservation organization. As a province
- wide, member-driven charitable organization, with over 43,000 members and more than 100 member clubs, our organization represents the interests of all British Columbians who aim to protect, enhance, and promote the wise use of the environment for the benefit of present and future generations.

**Job Overview - Wetlands Education Program Summer Intern**

The B.C. Wildlife Federation’s Wetlands Education Program is looking for a 4-month Wetlands Education

Program Intern. The Wetlands Education Program (WEP) was created in 1996 to deliver quality wetlands education that builds the capacity of individuals and groups to assess and steward their wetlands, and, using this new knowledge, increase community watershed health. This competitive internship opportunity provides hands-on experience for individuals who are interested in a career in environmental education and/or conservation. As a WEP intern, you will have the unique opportunity to get involved in rewarding conservation and stewardship workshops throughout B.C.

Program Coordinator and Assistants, and will be involved in all aspects of planning, delivery, and budgeting of the programs. This includes some travel within B.C. to deliver programs, with COVID-19 safety precautions in place. Experience gained in this position is valuable to future work in environmental project and education positions. Due to the nature of the work, the WEP Intern will be able to network with key professionals who work among various levels of government and non-government organizations.

To support a workforce that reflects the diversity of our community, women, Indigenous Peoples, racialized individuals, persons of diverse sexual orientation, gender identity or expression (2SLGBTQAI+), persons with disabilities, and others who may contribute to the diversity of our workforce are encouraged to express their interest and apply. _This position is funded by the Canada Summer Jobs Program._
