Applications are now open for our COP26 Climate Leader Prizes.

Current Sussex students who show outstanding climate leadership in the run-up and after the UN Climate Change Conference (COP26) will have the opportunity to win one of three £3,000 prizes.

Some examples of climate leadership include:

  • encouraging others to sign up to sustainability pledges
  • running sustainability/climate campaigns or a student society
  • raising awareness through education, outreach and social media

The competition is open to current undergraduate and postgraduate students at the University of Sussex.

The deadline for applications is 1 February 2022.

A panel of sustainability and communications professionals will select the successful applications. The winners will be announced in spring 2022.

You can find out more and register on the Student Hub.
