Fully Funded by the Bezos Earth Fund : Apply for the Carbon Sequestration Fellowships 2025

The Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT is offering Carbon Sequestration Fellowships for MSc and PhD students from all over the world for 2025. These 4-month internships aim to advance research focused on improving soil organic carbon sequestration, a critical solution to the global climate crisis.

Fellowship Focus
The fellowship seeks to develop innovative strategies to enhance carbon storage in tropical soils, specifically by improving the deep-rooting ability of tropical forage grasses and rice varieties.

Program Details
The fellowships are part of the project "Using genetic diversity to capture carbon through deep root systems in tropical soils," supported by the Bezos Earth Fund. Fellows will engage in both field and laboratory research, with an emphasis on hands-on work rather than desk-based activities.
