This fund supports ongoing education with underserved populations in environmental STEM. Audiences include marginalized communities of color; socioeconomically disadvantaged populations; women and girls; English language learners; and other communities disproportionately harmed by environmental injustice. An integral partner in this project, the Harambee Institute of Science and Technology Charter School in Philadelphia, offers community-driven education focused on the origins, status, and future of the African world.
