Earth Fellows Edit 2024

Welcome

Edinburgh Earth Initiative's Earth Fellows programme gives current students the unique opportunity to work on paid climate and environment projects, engage with professional development events and build a network for collective action on climate change. This year's Earth Fellows Edit showcases the wonderful work of many of this year's Earth Fellows, and acts as a record of their contributions to our collective climate knowledge.

For the first time this year, we also include quotes from project partners across the University and beyond. The Earth Fellows programme could not run without the fantastic collaboration from all our project partners and we are very grateful for your ongoing support.
