Does your organization need assistance with its climate-related goals? Apply for the PICS Climate Internship Grant 2027. The PICS Climate Internship Program helps organizations in British Columbia reach their climate goals while giving university students in climate-related fields a chance to hone their skills and acquire relevant work experience.
PICS Climate Internship projects can address a wide range of climate action issues. Internship projects are most effective when they are well-defined, practical, and will help your community or organization meet a climate action goal.
Benefits
- Through an annual competitive process, the program offers up to $15,000 to eligible organizations to hire a student from a PICS university (UBC, SFU, UNBC, UVic) to assist with a climate action project in your organization/community.

- Non-government organizations (registered non-profits)
- First Nations and Indigenous organizations

- provide direct climate value or benefit to organizations and communities in British Columbia (communities can include groups living in common areas and/or groups with common interests)
- provide an excellent early career development opportunity for a university student in a climate-related field
- are likely to generate or inspire further climate actions/policies in other organizations/communities
