About
The ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø University is a groundbreaking new entity that is working to advance and catalyze research programs across all of Harvard’s schools, turn climate research into real-world climate solutions, and enable comprehensive cross-university education in climate and the environment.
Building on work developed over decades ºÚÁÏ×¨Çø, the Salata Institute launched in fall 2022, led by Vice Provost for Climate and Sustainability Jim Stock, with a mission to develop and promote durable, effective, and equitable solutions to the climate change challenges confronting humanity. The Institute was made possible by a $200 million gift in June 2022 from Melanie and Jean Salata.
