UC Center Sacramento is pleased to announce the UCCS 2023-24 Public Lectureship and White Paper Competition. The purpose of the competition is to stimulate multidisciplinary evidence synthesis and creative problem solving related to one of two major policy themes:
- Promoting Environmental Justice. Projects related to this theme will document and address the unfair distribution of environmental burdens, remedies, or both across the state; or
- Creating a More Functional Democracy. Projects related to this theme will highlight evidence-based approaches for enhancing voter participation, encouraging civic engagement, or removing legal and administrative impediments that interfere with our ability to meet policy challenges.
