USIECR Internship Announcement
For Former Udall Foundation Scholars, Fellows and Congressional Interns
The U.S. Institute for Environmental Conflict Resolution (the U.S. Institute) was created by Congress to assist parties in resolving
environmental, natural resource, and public lands conflicts. The U.S. Institute is a program of the Udall Foundation, an
independent federal agency.
The U.S. Institute provides a neutral place inside the federal government, where public and private interests can reach common ground
using non-adversarial, interest-based negotiation. The mission of the Institute is to:
-
Resolve environmental conflicts and improve environmental decision-making through mediation, training
and related activities.
A variety of complex, interesting and important environmental issues are part of the U.S. Institute's caseload. Currently we are working with
Federal Agencies and Departments, such as Interior, EPA, Transportation, Agriculture and Defense, to prevent and resolve conflicts over
use of public lands, endangered species, sacred sites, highway construction, and ecosystem restoration. The U.S. Institute also has programs
to train people in other federal agencies about the appropriate use of Environmental Conflict Resolution (ECR) and several ongoing
national policy initiatives.
