A brief description of the institution’s sustainability projects fund:
Supports smaller projects that are designed to build a campus sustainability culture and promote student engagement. A small funding pool is set aside each year to award grants of up to $5,000 and is overseen by the director of Sustainability Practices at ASU and a Sustainability Initiatives Revolving Fund (SIRF) committee member.
A brief description of the multi-stakeholder decision-making process used to determine which projects receive funding through the sustainability projects fund:
The Sustainability Challenge Grant is awarded in a two-part process. First, a student panel reviews applications. The panel consists of a representative from the student government, a past recipient, the Sustainability Chair for Changemaker Central, and a representative from a student club that represents a large student population (e.g., the Residence Hall Association). Second, applications that are recommended by the student panel are reviewed by the Director of University Sustainability Practices for final approval.
