Ms. Ahmad and Ms. Disney came with Professor Cecilia Dalupan to share the mission, projects and programs of the Sustainable Development Strategies Group (SDSG). They also highlighted internship opportunities available for students.
SDSG is a sustainable development consulting group focused
on capacity building for governments, communities and practitioners. Professor
Dalupan, a Principal of SDSG, spoke passionately about the increasing awareness of environmental and
natural resources sustainability issues. SDSG’s projects include the Model Mine
Development Agreement, a template for government leaders when making long-term
mining agreements. Other projects focus on transparency initiatives, government
accountability, community benefits sharing and seminars and workshops to
teaching natural resource development skills.
Kristi Disney is
now working as the Director of International Programs at SDSG.
Nadia Ahmad is
now working as a Legal Fellow at SDSG. Ms. Ahmad stated, “The specializations
offered by the ENRGP program will really give you an edge.”
We thank all three of these
passionate women for taking time to speak to our students about the exciting opportunities
that await them in international environmental law. The ENRGP program also
wish Ms. Disney and Ms. Ahmad continued success in their future endeavors!
A similar event will take place on campus next Wednesday, the 14th:
The ENRGP program with SALDF and NRELS will host an Animal Law and Environmental Law Lunch Panel Discussion. Panelists will discuss course options, internship opportunities and career paths.
