US environmental educators and organizations may apply for grants of up to $5,000 for local student research symposia (SRS).

 

The local SRS supported by YLACES is to be based on the GLOBE regional SRS model but instead should be one-day events with student participants drawn from a school, school district(s), a locale, or a small region.

 

During the SRS, there should be peer-to-peer reviews and the opportunity for students to talk with STEM professionals about their research. Why are local SRSes so important for youth? Click here for the latest evaluation report.

Additionally, YLACES has sponsored the annual GLOBE regional SRSes since 2019. GLOBE SRS dates and locations can be found here.
