About UBC Sustainability Fellowships
Sustainability Fellowships are granted to full-time UBC Vancouver faculty members who are spearheading the development of innovative sustainability courses and programs, supported by a Sustainability Education Grant. Funding from the grant program supports curriculum development centred on transformative learning that incorporates experiential, applied and interdisciplinary sustainability education principles.
For the duration of the grant, recipients become Sustainability Fellows and join a cohort of faculty that meet monthly to exchange ideas and collaborate to advance sustainability education at UBC.
