The first cohort of fellows in the Kamehameha Schools Sustainability Internship Program studied real-life sustainability issues this summer and reported their results to KS staffers.
The internships were a collaboration between KS and Kupu, a non-profit dedicated to cultivating the next generation of professionals in natural resource management, renewable energy, energy conservation and other green jobs.
KS Sustainability Manager Amy “Kalai” Brinker worked with staffers from Kupu’s RISE program to orchestrate the internships which included a variety of projects at Kamehameha, from creating sustainable policies to cultural resource management in Punaluʻu.
KS photographer Michael Young was on hand to capture the culmination of the internship program.
Kamehameha Schools’ policy is to give preference to applicants of Hawaiian ancestry to the extent permitted by law.
