A Selwyn student has received one of the vice-chancellor’s awards for social impact. The awards, organised by Cambridge Hub and sponsored by the vice-chancellor’s Office, recognise and celebrate achievement in contributing to society. 

Clara Ma, a Gates Cambridge scholar at Selwyn, has received the  Sustainability Award for her contributions to food sustainability programmes at the University of Cambridge. 

Clara is a PhD student at the Cambridge centre for environment, energy and natural resource governance. She assists departments, colleges, and organisations across the university in transitioning to more sustainable food procurement.
