    Are you working on a project relating to the UN Sustainable Development Goals? Please consider taking part in the U21 RISE Showcase!

    RISE – Real Impact on Society and Environment – is a Universitas 21 (U21) opportunity to showcase student projects tied to sustainability and social innovation and to connect those students with a network of experts in academia and industry. UConn has been invited to nominate 3-4 student-led projects.

    In addition to making global connections and gaining professional support, participants have the chance to win $2,000 from U21 to put towards their project.

    Please note that UConn students must apply through UConn's Office of Global Affairs.
