($75,000) Harvard University Burke Climate & Health Fellowship 2023-2024

2023–2024 Burke Climate & Health Fellowship applications are open. The Harvard Global Health Institute is offering a two-year fellowship for qualified research fellows, post-doctoral scholars, and early career professors conducting climate change and global health research. Salata Institute for Climate and Sustainability partners with this program.

Burke Climate and Health Fellows will collaborate closely on their proposed research project throughout their fellowship with a Harvard faculty mentor from any school or department.

The Burke Fund, created by Harvard alumnus Katherine States Burke, AB’79, and her husband T. Robert Burke to encourage and advance the careers of promising early career scholars in global health, is what makes the Burke Climate and Health Fellowship feasible.

Award
  • For a maximum of two years, the fellowship award includes a salary of $75,000 to fund research on climate and health.
  • The Harvard Global Health Institute and Salata Institute will count Climate and Health Fellows as full members during the fellowship time, and they should anticipate taking part in cross-university dialogues on climate change.
  • All fellows will have access to physical space at the Salata Institute and the Harvard Global Health Institute to create a network of people interested in climate change and its effects.
  • Two Climate and Health Fellows are anticipated to be supported by the Salata Institute and the Harvard Global Health Institute to join the 2023 cohort.
