GreenFaith's Rising Leaders Fellowship

GreenFaith has a strong history of hosting eco-spiritual learning Fellowship experiences. This year, we are excited to be launching the Rising Leaders Fellowship for young adults aged 18-35, with a passion for climate justice and faith-based activism. The Rising Leaders Fellowship is a transformative yearlong program designed to equip and empower young adults to make a tangible difference in their community and beyond.

If you have any questions, please reach out to William@greenfaith.org. There will also be hosting an informational applicant support call on May 2 at 4pm Pacific / 7 Eastern.

WHEN: Applications due May 12 – the fellowship program will begin with an in person retreat in late June, and will last for one year.

WHAT: The Rising Leaders Fellowship is a one year program covering a range of topics including faith-rooted activism, the history of faith-rooted movements, climate science, climate communications, project planning, and community organizing training. Participants in the Rising Leaders Fellowship will have the opportunity to engage in a supportive community of like-minded peers, delve deeply into climate justice issues, and acquire practical skills to enact meaningful change through:

  • In-person Retreat, June 27-30 in San Francisco, CA
  • Interactive online training sessions to enhance community connections, knowledge and skills throughout the year.
  • Regular Check-in Calls to stay connected and receive ongoing support while planning a special project grounded in faith for climate justice that is contextual and relevant to your community, congregation, or campus.
