The University of Michigan School for Environment and Sustainability Detroit Sustainability Clinic has launched its Urban Sustainability and Justice Faculty and Community Fellows Program.
The fellowship invites academic scholars from external institutions to connect with the U-M and Detroit communities on advancing smart, actionable and equitable urban sustainability and climate solutions. It supports innovative partnerships with local sustainability leaders, providing a mechanism and platform for collaboration opportunities that accelerate community-based climate action.
