UBC’s Climate Solutions Research Collective is a new pan-university initiative designed to build connections across UBC’s climate researchers, groups and initiatives and encourage new collaborative research on climate change solutions.
As part of this new initiative, UBC Master’s and PhD students are invited to apply to become a Solutions Scholar. Successful students will be sponsored to apply their scholarly research to climate change mitigation, adaptation, and/or education. The focal areas for 2023/24 are
- wildfires and extreme heat
- urban transformations
Please see https://climatesolutions.ubc.ca/solutions-scholars for more details and to register for an information session on July 13. Applications are due on July 28.
The Climate Solutions Research Collective has launched with funding support from multiple Faculties across our Vancouver and Okanagan campuses and the Vice-President, Research and Innovation portfolio.
