  • How to apply?

    Submit the on-line application (the 2011 deadline is not yet available) with the following:

    You must submit:
    • Your resume;


    • A statement (one page more or less) describing why you are interested in participating in the Institute.


    • A short essay (approximately two pages):

      • Describing an enviropreneur project that you would like to develop or explore more fully while at the Institute, one that combines free market ideas or incentives with an environmental or conservation goal that you are passionate about. This description can be as broad or specific as you wish. It can be part of an ongoing project that you are already involved with or a loose collection of ideas that you have been dreaming of for some time. Since our lectures and discussions often focus around your project, imagine the proposal as a device to elaborate why your participation in the Enviropreneur Institute might help clarify, solidify, and grow your project/ideas into a concrete enterprise. Projects/ideas can vary greatly from ongoing enterprises or polished business plans to loose confederations of ideas. Selection of finalists is not based on how well developed the project/idea is, but rather on its virtues.


    • Two letters of recommendation from someone familiar with your skills, talent, creativity, and passion;


    • A photo of you that tells us something about yourself.

    "I have been charged with
    a very ambitious goal
    to conserve 16 million hectares in the Patagonian steppe, a task that requires a complex set of skills. I am confident that after having attended the Enviropreneur Institute, I am going back to Argentina much more capable to move forward effectively and efficiently."
