Tribal Climate Leaders Program
The Tribal Climate Leaders Program (TCLP) supports Native American graduate students to become the next generation of tribal environmental leaders. The TCLP has provided 5 fully-funded, 2-year fellowships to pursue a graduate degree at the University of Colorado Boulder in fields related to climate adaptation science. The program is open to Native American students affiliated with the 32 federally-recognized tribes in the 7-state North Central region. This is a pilot program; new applications are not being accepted at this time.
