We're highlighting Green 2.0 Fellow Alum Judene Josephs! Judene has begun her Ph.D. program at Georgia State University, focusing on the intersection of economics and the environment. We're so proud of all the great work she's doing!
A graphic featuring a photo of Judene Josephs, smiling and wearing a gray Howard University T-shirt and a blue lanyard. She stands in front of a step-and-repeat backdrop with the Georgia State University Andrew Young School of Policy Studies logo. Text above the image reads “Green 2.0 Fellow Alumni Profile.” Below the photo, text reads “Judene Josephs, Summer 2022 Fellow.” A split graphic with a tan text box on the left and a nature background with trees on the right. The text box contains the following text: Since my time at Green 2.0, I graduated from Howard University in May 2024 with a B.A. in Economics, summa cum laude and successfully completed the first year of my Ph.D. program at Georgia State University. My summer fellowship with Green 2.0 inspired me to further my education and research in environmental economics. This summer, I brainstormed research ideas at the intersection of environmental and health economics to contribute to my dissertation. I aspire to contribute to research that supports people from underrepresented backgrounds, such as black and brown individuals and the homeless community. In the lower right corner, there is a circular photo of Judene Josephs smiling, wearing a Howard University T-shirt and glasses, standing in front of a Georgia State University Andrew Young School backdrop.
