GIS Analysis of Conflict

The WWF Humanitarian Partnership program is looking for a graduate intern to develop GIS maps and datasets related to international conflict, humanitarian assistance, and biodiversity. In particular, the intern will be investigating how future conflict projections may impact WWF's 19 Priority Places. The analysis will augment companion datasets on natural disasters and climate change.

Experience:  Applicants should have in-depth expertise with GIS software, preferably ArcView and/or ArcGIS, including use of model tools. Knowledge and ability to access, download, organize and spatially represent databases is essential. Strong preference for independent candidates who can work with minimal guidance and supervision.

Stipend: modest stipend will be provided

Due date for CV and cover letter: April 1, 2008
