We would like to extend our congratulations to Eben Yonnetti and Sierra Gladfelter for their recent selection for 2017-18 Fulbright Student Awards!

Eben Yonnetti is recent a graduate of the M.A. program in the Department of Religious Studies at CU Boulder. His Fulbright will take him to the Himalayan region of Ladakh, India. His project will study how Tibetan Buddhist teachings and practices are mobilized to support environmental stewardship projects in response to climate change. 

Sierra Gladfelter is a recent graduate of the M.A. program in the Geography Department at CU Boulder. Her climate research will take place in New Delhi and across Uttarakhand, India. She will survey traditional adaptive strategies that mountain villages actively use to cope with climate-induced disasters.

Congratulations, Eben and Sierra, on both your Fullbright awards and your graduation this past week!
