Global Engagement in Sustainability Grants
Collaboration between MCSI and the University Center for International Studies (UCIS) New grants in Global Engagement in Sustainability enable people to share, develop and expand their research, teaching or professional practice beyond the campus. Created by Dr. David Sanchez (MCSI) and led by Ariel Armony (Vice Provost, UCIS) and John Stoner (Executive Director, UCIS) the grants encourage engagement activities with partners beyond the general campus and region. Partners can be national or international, from either inside or outside of higher education, and are working in areas that strongly align the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
