Welcome

This is a site for students in SIS-388 International Environmental Politics, in the School of International Service at American University.

The site is used to pass on information about environment-related internships, jobs, and upcoming events, mostly in the Washington DC area. It also connects to group discussion blogs kept by participants in the course. You'll find links to those blogs below.

The site is maintained by Simon Nicholson, a member of the School of International Service's global environmental politics faculty. You can e-mail me by clicking here.
