ACU Commonwealth Climate Resilience Challenge Grants are awarded to member universities to support initiatives addressing climate resilience. Aimed at academic and professional staff, the grants support collaborative work focused on either of the two main strategic priorities of the Commonwealth Climate Resilience Network (CCRN):
The University has research output with high potential for use in society and commercialization. Some of this research output has been identified and protected. The products and processes that have potential for commercialization are in various stages of development. Some need more research, prototyping, market research and others are ready for marketing.
The Institute for Development Studies (IDS) through its Director and Lead researcher, Prof.Karuti Kanyinga, are among five winners of $500K in philanthropic funding support by the Carnegie Foundation for each collaboration focused on emerging trans-regional trends in Africa, the Middle East, and beyond.
