Penn Climate Launches Innovation Seed Grants

Climate solutions require innovation and collaboration across disciplines and sectors. Penn is uniquely positioned to integrate world-class research programs across arts and sciences, health, engineering, policy, law, communications, business, design, education, and more to address the grand challenge of climate change.  

Now, Penn Climate is excited to announce an open call for proposals for the Climate Solutions Hub Innovation Seed Grants, which will fund up to two $400,000, multidisciplinary, research-focused projects to create climate solutions by leveraging Penn’s existing strengths. These seed grants will engender creativity and collaboration across Penn and support initiatives that are poised to launch into longer-term, sustainable efforts.  

Penn Climate’s Innovation Seed Grants will act as an internal catalyst, supporting new faculty-led efforts while fostering creativity and collaboration to position Penn at the forefront of emerging climate priorities.
