Within the framework of the University Alliance for Sustainability, Freie Universität Berlin together with its four strategic partner universities: the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (Israel), the Peking University (China), St. Petersburg State University (Russia) and the University of British Columbia (Canada) focuses on sustainability as a comprehensive topic for collaborating in research, teaching, and campus management.

For this purpose, Freie Universität offers mobility grants for students, junior and senoir research fellows to one of the strategic partners. This year, our PhD candidate Kei Namba has received one of the grants for a junior research stay and will conduct research in the field of sustainability abroad.
