<span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Barlow Condensed"; color:black">In 2019, we launched the Agents of Change in Environmental Justice fellowship, a joint initiative between George Washington University Milken School of Public Health and Environmental
Health News. Our mission to empower emerging leaders from historically excluded backgrounds in science and academia to reimagine solutions for a just and healthy planet has reached new frontiers. We have trained more than 30 fellows who are advancing environmental
and climate justice through expertise in environmental public health, sociology, medicine, earth sciences, engineering, and urban planning. We are making an impact; our fellows are gaining visibility as emerging environmental justice leaders.</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt"></span></p>

<span style="font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Barlow Condensed"; color:black">The fellowship requires 60-80 hours of time over 9 months, this includes participating in online peer-based writing workshops and training seminars, writing, incorporating feedback
