A new seed fund is launched Fall 2023, in partnership with Amazonia 2030, to support early-stage collaboration between Brazil and MIT.
Joint teams from MIT and Brazilian universities, research institutes, NGOs and other entities are now invited to submit their proposals focusing on relevant aspects of the Brazilian Amazonian region, and its cities, environment, culture, or communities.
Priority will be given to projects that:
• Propose a balanced exchange between the MIT and Brazilian teams
• Demonstrate complementarity between the teams
• Involve undergraduate and graduate students
Need help finding:
- a collaborator in the region?
- an MIT professor or researcher to collaborate with?
- Please write to amazoniaseedfund [at] mit.edu (amazoniaseedfund@mit.edu) and browse MIT research centers, labs and programs here https://www.mit.edu/research/centers-labs-programs/
MIT-Brazil and MIT-Amazonia are part of MIT’s Center for International Studies
