The Public Interest Incorporated Foundation World Wide Fund for Nature Japan (WWF Japan) is recruiting participants for the third cohort of its "BEE" (Base for Environmental Entrepreneurs) program, a next-generation environmental leader development program.
This six-month program supports participants in refining their businesses through mentoring from pioneers and experts active at the forefront of the environment and sustainability fields, connections with like-minded peers, networking to various resources for business growth, and assistance in creating scenarios for systemic change aimed at fundamental problem-solving.
Collective action (collaboration across fields, positions, and approaches) is indispensable for achieving nature-positive and carbon-neutral goals.
BEE welcomes next-generation leaders tackling environmental challenges from various perspectives and approaches. In addition to individuals who have started their own businesses, past participants include those developing businesses within corporations, government agencies, NPOs/NGOs, university students, and researchers. We look forward to many applications.
