How to enter

It’s simple! Just pick the job or industry that interests you the most and share how you can help people connect with nature in that role.

Deadline: Midnight Wednesday 2nd April (11:59 PM)

Example/guidance:
If you’re interested in becoming a science teacher, you could explain how you would design fun and interactive lessons that help students of all backgrounds understand the importance of protecting nature. For example, you could organise outdoor science projects, like recycling programs or planting trees, and teach students practical ways to care for the environment in their daily lives.

What you could win  

  • An Insight Day at WWF-UK HQ in Woking – Experience what a sustainable career really looks like, with a behind-the-scenes look at various departments.
  • Real-World Experience – Get an inside view of a typical day at WWF and the chance to ask questions, connect with staff, and learn from industry leaders.

We can’t wait to hear the sustainable future that you envision.
