The Resilient Communities Internship is designed for undergraduate students who wish to cultivate their community leadership and participatory action research capacities to contribute to transformative social change in Appalachia. The internship provides students a space to build confidence and capacity in their search for creative solutions to local and global problems. Focusing in three areas of inquiry (Community Economies and Development, Environmental Justice and Climate Action, and Food System Transformation), projects include: Livelihoods and Grassroots Development, Cultivating Youth Resilience Leaders, Nutrition Futures in West Virginia, Farm to School in West Virginia, and Streams of Solidarity.
