Lead the Clean Energy Revolution as a Regional Director!
High Gas Prices, Conflict in the Middle East, Global Warming…
It's Time to Kick the Oil Habit!
Get a free trip to Washington—help lead a national advocacy group and bring the energy security debate to your campus.
2020 Vision is committed to engaging the public on how America's dependence on oil is undermining our security, environment, and economy. Our advocacy, media and web outreach campaigns bring these issues home to vast audiences across the country and activate tens of thousands of people each month.
An Opportunity of a lifetime…
2020 Vision launched an innovative new program to create a student-led Regional Director's Council. 10-15 energetic participants from colleges and universities across the US will be chosen as Volunteer Regional Directors to come to Washington, D.C. in July of 2007 free of charge for an intensive week of hands-on training in non-profit advocacy and field organizing. During this one school-year term, participants will be our point of contact for a non-partisan debate on energy security policy and related issues on their campus.
Leadership, not internship
Unlike most internships, this is real work experience with a minimal time commitment. Instantly, you will become one of our top people in the field bringing new interest into the organization on the issues you care about. We understand that students like you are busy people and cannot always commit to a full-time internship. This promises to be fun and exciting leadership opportunity and you will learn skills that will benefit you in virtually every career track.
The PowerShift National Tour is just one campaign our current Regional Directors ran themselves.
Learn and use valuable skills
While in Washington, we will provide you with training from nationally recognized professionals and our seasoned staff at 2020 Vision. You can expect to walk away with skills in the following areas:
- Media relations
- Community organizing
- Organizational development
- Issue advocacy
In addition, you will learn how to take the lead in producing a fully funded event on global energy security on your college campus. We will provide you with all of the necessary resources, several coalition partners, round-the-clock support, and top-notch, nationally renowned speakers for the events. Not only that, but you will be continuing to shape an exciting new program at an innovative advocacy organization in Washington, D.C.
Qualifications
- A demonstrated commitment to global security, renewable energy, the environment, social justice or other progressive causes or ideals
- Strong people skills, a passion for quality leadership, and the ability to multi-task
- An ability to commit to a yearlong program that includes: promoting the organization year-round, attending regular event calls, reporting progress, and managing the project on campus
- Current enrollment in a college or university
- Experience in community organizing, political campaigns, or involvement in campus or local politics
