11 Student Teams Awarded Grants for Sustainability Initiatives at BU and Beyond

With grant funding and resources offered through a partnership between BU Sustainability and Innovate@BU, Boston University students are empowered to kick-start a project or develop an intervention that tackles sustainability challenges facing the University.

During the fall 2020 semester, students submitted ideas for sustainability innovations which provide solutions for Boston University, and encouraged them to have an impact beyond campus. The projects were required to meet one or more of the recommendations outlined in the Boston University Climate Action Plan. Potential topics included: 

  • Climate change resilience
  • Emissions and energy
  • Education and engagement
  • Environmental Justice
  • Zero Waste
