We are excited to announce that applications for the 2025 Oxford SDG Impact Lab Fellowships and the Oxford Laidlaw Scholars Programme are now open to University of Oxford students!

The Oxford SDG Impact Lab Fellowship is designed for graduate students passionate about sustainability and creating real-world change. As a Fellow, you’ll collaborate with leading businesses, community organisations, and academic experts to tackle some of the most pressing global challenges aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through hands-on projects and interdisciplinary work, you’ll develop invaluable skills in leadership, research, and innovation.

The Oxford Laidlaw Scholars Programme is designed for first-year undergraduate students eager to engage in impactful local and global projects that advance sustainable development. This 18-month programme enables scholars to develop leadership and research skills through hands-on projects, such as designing extra-curricular programmes with local schools and collaborating with international peers on sustainability initiatives. Supported by the Oxford Character Project, scholars participate in leadership workshops and gain valuable experiences that prepare them to become future leaders in sustainability.
