Opportunites of a lifetime.

Each year BLAKE offers incredible environmental leadership opportunities for 18 – 25-year olds through our BLAKE Ambassadors programme.

Thanks to BLAKE’s partners NIWA, the Department of Conservation (DOC), Antarctica New Zealand and GNS Science, BLAKE Ambassadors travel to Antarctica, the Southern Ocean, and remote locations around New Zealand to work alongside scientists, conservationists, engineers and conservators on important projects and research.

In 2019, ten talented young New Zealanders from all over the country were selected to take part in the 2019/20 BLAKE Ambassador programme. 

The BLAKE Ambassador programme offers unique opportunities to contribute to important projects while advancing their career opportunities.

Each programme is designed to both advance their understanding of some of the big questions and challenges facing the environment and their leadership capability to drive positive change and inspire other New Zealanders.
