Agent of Change Coordinator Lauren Nutter has won the prestigious Thomas J. Watson Fellowship!

The fellowship provides $25,000 for a year of travel and study. Lauren will use the money to study and promote youth empowerment in Turkey, India, and the Maldives, among other places.

Part of Lauren's motivation for her application came from her work with SustainUS working with youth in the UN climate change negotiations, including meeting young people from the Maldives at the 2007 Bali negotiations.
