""EDF is a leader in environmental advocacy, strategy, implementation, and policy engagement. And Cornell's role is to provide sound and solid science to empower EDF in that work.""
""We are excited that we have expanded the types of grants awarded this year, including the new fast track grants that will enable us to rapidly provide targeted expertise for policy and other advocacy efforts.""
The Cornell Atkinson Center for Sustainability and the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) are distributing $1.24 million to support 12 collaborative projects. These projects focus on protecting ocean ecosystems, improving urban air quality, and incentivizing electric vehicle battery recycling. The partnership has existed for 16 years, yielding significant outcomes in various areas, including agricultural financing and mangrove restoration. This year, the awards process has been restructured to include research, impact, and fast track grants for urgent policy engagement, enhancing the collaboration's effectiveness.
