We are incredibly grateful for this philanthropic commitment, which will enhance our capacity to train emerging leaders in climate research, innovation and policy. The funding will enable us to support a talented PhD student, further advancing our mission to foster innovative solutions and evidence-based strategies for pressing environmental issues.

This partnership highlights the importance of collaboration between academia and philanthropic organisations in driving meaningful change. We look forward to working with the Fernhill Foundation and Community Foundation Ireland as we continue to develop the next generation of climate experts dedicated to creating a sustainable future for our communities.
