The Climate Leaders Academy (CLA) will formalize interdisciplinary climate-training and professional development through a cohort model that brings together undergraduates and graduate students from a diverse set of institutions and backgrounds. We will directly engage them in national and international climate change frameworks, and provide financial support, formalized mentoring, an established network of ongoing support, and transferable undergraduate and graduate-level course credits.
The first cohort was enrolled in Summer 2023 and will attend COP28.
