BSERVATION & ACTION NETWORK (OAN) Grants Program is a collaboration between the Center for the Living City, the Urban Design Collective and NASA India that invites students who are extremely passionate about transforming their cities/towns for a better tomorrow. This program will utilize skill-sets and tools that both inform action and support students’ developing voices. The OAN strives to create a network where students can involve themselves directly with identifying and solving real urban challenges with the people in their neighbourhoods while also connecting with other creative leaders throughout the world. The Grants Program is an inaugural part of the OAN, and the three winners become the first 2020 OAN Fellows. Each of the winning individuals or teams will be awarded $500 USD for the implementation of their proposals.
