Nine New Mexico student projects, including a video by Leela Young ’24 and Ada Ovitt ’25, picked up awards at the Climate Innovations Challenge Virtual Student Showcase.
The students competed against five other states and Kenyan students.
The CIC Showcase was the culmination of a science-based climate adaptation and resilience curriculum created and produced by Climate Advocates Voces Unidas (CAVU).
“As you’ve learned through your participation in the Climate Innovation Challenge, adaptation and mitigation strategies help address climate change in different ways, but no single option is sufficient by itself,” said Phil Lucero, education director at CAV, during the event.
