Conservancy<br>
</font>Washington, DC</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Ocean Conservancy’s Government Relations department works
with our team of conservation experts to develop and
implement policy solutions to address key ocean threats.
Through strategic engagement with Congress, the
Administration, partner organizations, and other
stakeholders, we work to influence legislation and policy
decisions to achieve lasting change. We pride ourselves on
promoting policy solutions that are visionary, but
pragmatic; inspiring and activating key constituencies in
new and innovative ways; and working with our program teams
to win real policy and legislative changes that protect and
promote ocean health.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Primary Responsibilities:<br>
The Government Relations Manager develops, implements, and
coordinates efforts to advance Ocean Conservancy’s national
policy and legislative agenda. S/he represents the
organization to, and maintains close contact with, Members
of Congress, their staff, and the Administration on ocean
conservation and funding issues. S/he will work closely
Ocean Conservancy programs and staff to identify, and create
opportunities, to advance specific policy goals, and to
develop and implement strategies and tactics to achieve
effective policy outcomes. This work will include policy
analysis, legislative/administrative strategy development
and implementation, selective stakeholder outreach, and
coordination of the NGO community. The Government Relations
Manager will help determine when new legislative authority
is needed, draft testimony, legislation, and legislative
amendments, and communicate with Congressional staff. S/he
responds to requests for information and advocates for
organization’s positions before Congress and with federal
administrative agencies. At least initially, s/he will
likely focus on Ocean Conservancy’s work on comprehensive
ocean use planning, ocean acidification, and appropriations.</p>

<p><font size="3">Internship (or M.Sc. project) on Plastic
Marine Litter, Utrecht University</font></p>
<p>Utrecht, Netherlands</p>
<p><br>
In the past few years, Plastic Marine Litter has received
increased attention by the media. The existence and the
growth of extensive plastic gyres in the oceans and the
rising quantities of small plastic debris are increasingly
being seen as threat to marine wildlife and potentially also
to human health. There is hence urgent need to minimize
littering and other forms of leakages which ultimately lead
to Plastic Marine Litter.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Against this background it is essential<br>
• to gain better understanding of the sources of origin
and on the pathways (leaks) leading to Plastic Marine Litter
in the North Sea and<br>
• to identify future research strategies allowing to
obtain deeper insight into how to prevent Plastic Marine
Litter by closing leaks of plastics to the environment.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>These are the two main objectives of the proposed
internship (or MSc. project) which is conducted with a focus
on the North Sea in collaboration with Stichting De
Noordzee (North Sea Foundation), the think tank and
consultancy IMSA Amsterdam , the Dutch Polymer Institute
(DPI) and a few other stakeholders.</p>

About the job<br>
It’s hard work creating a prosperous fishing future, and we
couldn’t do it without dedicated, passionate interns who
lend a diverse skillset to our work for a few months.
</p>
<p><br>
An internship with us includes a number of support tasks
that will familiarize you with the fisheries world:
communications tasks like media monitoring, reviewing social
media, administrative tasks such as researching funding
opportunities, and maintaining our awe-inducing SalesForce
based database. (Seriously. It rocks.)</p>
<p><br>
In addition to these tasks, you will be encouraged to work
on an independent project. Perfect intern projects are made
up of things that intersect your interests and our needs.
Our needs are many, and your interests should be too. We’ll
work with you to determine project focus and scope but
you’ll be in the driver’s seat. </p>
<p><br>
About you<br>
You are motivated, passionate, and fun. You’re interested in
learning more about the fisheries world and making a
difference. Working with us is exactly the thing you need to
do to launch you onto your path of greatness, whatever that
may be. You’ll work hard to learn the ropes quickly.</p>
<p><br>
Good people skills are a must—technical communications
skills are helpful, but if you don’t know them, we’ll teach
you.</p>
<p><br>
This is an unpaid internship, but we will provide a stipend
for your commute, and introduce you to as many awesome
people as we can think of. In order for us all to benefit
from this relationship, we’d appreciate it if you’d stick
around for a minimum of 12 weeks. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>About us<br>
Our nation’s fisheries were in crisis—until we built the
alliance that turned the tide. Twenty years later, we’re
closer than ever to ending overfishing and restoring health
to US fish stocks. How have we done it? To find out more

We work hard; we have fun. And even though we have a long
and proud history as an NGO, our new team, our can-do
culture and our nimble operating style have us running more
like a startup.</p>
