Please note that we are not accepting letters of inquiries or proposals until further notice.
The Environmental Science Program (ESP), funded by the Packard Foundation, is designed to enhance the scientific input to nonprofit environmental organizations. The program is aimed at scientists in colleges and universities. The ESP includes Academic Minigrants, NGO Minigrants, Environmental Defense science internships and fellowships, and collaborative projects with Environmental Defense staff. Through these activities, we are seeking to provide academic scientists with opportunities to apply their expertise in a policy context.
