Advancing new knowledge and leadership

We want to play a key role in tackling climate change by investing in our people, our research and in our partnerships. We will:

  • Invest up to £1million each year through a new Sheffield Hallam Research and Innovation Fund, to support bold research and innovations to advance our understanding and impact on climate and sustainability issues.
  • Embed climate values and understanding in all aspects of staff development, from recruitment and induction through to professional training and leadership development.
  • Implement a programme of Transforming Lives Fellowships, which will see a number of new academic leaders recruited to further strengthen our climate credentials.
  • And finally, we also commit to never directly investing in fossil fuels.
