New Sustainable LA Grand Challenge Programming Gains TRACtion With Focus First on Transportation

The UCLA Sustainable LA Grand Challenge launched a new initiative to bring UCLA scholars together with community stakeholders to address a rotating list of four key topics related to sustainability: transportation, energy, water and ecosystems. The program, called TRACtion — for Transformative Research and Collaboration — began with a two-year series of activities and funding opportunities called Transforming Transportation in Los Angeles that will tackle the city’s seemingly intractable transportation challenges.
