The McGill Sustainability Systems Initiative (MSSI) is a transdisciplinary research organization driving societal change for a sustainable future. We are the University's convenor, catalyst, connector, and overall leader of sustainability research.
With a $10M fund, we support many bold and transdisciplinary sustainability projects annually.

Our research themes were designed to foster robust transdisciplinary teams well-suited to address complex sustainability challenges and leverage additional funding. As multi-year programs, they allow researchers with varying expertise to build meaningful collaborative relationships that will last and bolster McGill’s capacity for innovative sustainability research.
The MSSI offers many opportunities to conduct sustainability research at McGill, including research funding, a scholars program, and a cross-departmental 9-month fellowship.
