Fellows 2022

The Cornell Lab of Ornithology is proud to introduce the new generation of Coastal Solutions Fellows 2022. Every year, 6 early-career professionals from Latin America join the CSF Program to lead on multi-disciplinary conservation projects along the Pacific Flyaway. 

The Coastal Solutions Fellows Program was designed to create a collaborative community of architects, planners, engineers, biologists and natural resource specialists who are passionate about the conservation and resiliency of coastal ecosystems.
