UC ANR Climate Initiative

The University of California Agriculture and National Resources (UC ANR) intends to foster freedom of expression and the free exchange of ideas that comply with state and federal law and campus policies while also protecting students, staff, faculty, other academic appointees, and volunteers' safety and access to educational opportunities.

In accordance with Federal law and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) civil rights regulations and policies, UC ANR is prohibited from discriminating on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, gender identity (including gender expression), sexual orientation, age, disability, income derived from a public assistance program, or reprisal or retaliation for prior civil rights activity. Remedies and complaint filing deadlines vary by program or incident.

UC ANR is committed to improving overall climate and resiliency. Below is a list of resources to enhance UC ANR's capabilities to address climate disruptions.
