Lizzy worked with residents to map the effects of pollution, trigger conversations around new possibilities and develop recommendations to reverse unjust trajectories of development. Just like the anti-Mafia activists who have inspired her, Lizzy does not shy away from unveiling and speaking out about unjust power relationships shaping Sicilian landscapes and contexts./p>p>Lizzy started as a post-doctoral fellow at the Canada Excellence Research Chair Network for Equity in Sustainability Transitions on September 1st. Before that she had been a post-doctoral researcher at the Just Transitions in Action Project at the University of Toronto Scarborough, where she co-led the Listening Project, a community-based research initiative that aims to work with community partners to understand and envision equitable transitions. Specifically she is looking to understand how climate policy aimed at achieving net-zero aligns with the daily concerns and aspirations of residents in Scarborough, a diverse working class borough on the edge of Toronto. She strongly believes that courageous scientists not only generate knowledge to support fair socio-technological transitions, but to also repair past harms and to heal wounded relationships./p>/div>/div>div classwp-block-group quote has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained>figure classwp-block-image size-medium is-resized has-custom-border portrait>img width300 height300 srchttps://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff-300x300.webp alt classwp-image-607 styleborder-radius:50%;aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover;width:300px;height:auto srcsethttps://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff-300x300.webp 300w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff-1024x1024.webp 1024w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff-150x150.webp 150w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff-768x768.webp 768w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff-1536x1536.webp 1536w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff-1320x1320.webp 1320w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/rose_abramoff.webp 1910w sizes(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px />/figure>div classwp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-29a8626f wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained stylepadding-top:0;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-bottom:0;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20)>h3 classwp-block-heading>strong>strong>strong>Dr. Rose Abramoff,/strong> North America, United States/strong>/strong>/h3>p>Dr. Rose Abramoff is an assistant professor of forest science at the University of Maine in the northeastern United States.

Her inspiration for participating in civil disobedience was climate scientist and former Director of the NASA Goddard Institute for Space Studies, James Hansen, who had chained himself to the very same fence back in 2013 to protest the expansion of a crude oil pipeline./p>p>Since then she has participated in a number of civil disobedience actions; at the American Geophysical Union annual meeting in December 2022, an association of 60,000 earth and space scientists, Rose and her fellow scientist Peter Kalmus unfurled a banner with the message, “Out of the lab & into the streets” just before the speakers joined the stage. Her employer at the time, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory fired her. Rose continues to push scientific institutions to support activism and advocacy of experts. She also helps her fellow scientists acknowledge and address their emotions around the climate crisis in order to turn grief and fear into hope./p>/div>/div>div classwp-block-group quote has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained>figure classwp-block-image size-medium is-resized has-custom-border portrait>img width300 height300 srchttps://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/olivia_bisa_tirko-300x300.webp alt classwp-image-606 styleborder-radius:50%;aspect-ratio:1;object-fit:cover;width:300px;height:auto srcsethttps://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/olivia_bisa_tirko-300x300.webp 300w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/olivia_bisa_tirko-150x150.webp 150w, https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/olivia_bisa_tirko.webp 562w sizes(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px />/figure>div classwp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-29a8626f wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained stylepadding-top:0;padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20);padding-bottom:0;padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--20)>h3 classwp-block-heading>strong>strong>strong>strong>Olivia Bisa Tirko – South America, Chapra Nation, Peru/strong>/strong>/strong>/strong>/h3>p>Olivia Bisa Tirko is the Indigenous leader and first female president of the Autonomous Territorial Government of the Chapra Nation in Datem del Marañón Province, Loreto, Peru.

As she wrote us, ”courage means choosing to pursue a pathway that you believe can add to your cause even when all the odds are against you!” /p>p>Lecturer Justin Rose, whose course had motivated the students to take on climate justice from a legal perspective, was able to convince the small island state of Vanuatu to be an official state sponsor. Thereafter Cynthia and her fellow students attended international climate meetings with activists from around the globe to lobby states to join their efforts. It paid off – 132 countries agreed to co-sponsor a resolution before the UN General Assembly, calling on the ICJ to provide its opinion on two key questions: what obligations do states have to tackle climate change under international law and what are the legal consequences if they fail to do so? /p>p>In November 2024 Cynthia spoke at the ICJ’s public hearing in November 2024, telling the court how her people’s land of Fanalei was disappearing due to rising seas. “Without our land, our bodies and memories are severed from the fundamental relationships that define who we are,” she said. In July 2025 the ICJ made a historic ruling, deciding that those suffering the impacts of the climate crisis have the right to sue and demand compensation./p>/div>/div>/div>div classprogress-container>div classprogress-bar >/div>/div>/div>div styleheight:50px aria-hiddentrue classwp-block-spacer>/div>p>strong>a hrefhttps://courageousscientistsaward.org/winners/ data-typepage data-id594>Click here to find out more about the Winners or to watch the Ceremony 2025/a>br>/strong>/p>div styleheight:50px aria-hiddentrue classwp-block-spacer>/div>/div>div classwp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-43bc439d wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained stylemargin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:0;padding-right:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:0>div classwp-block-cover is-light has-parallax cover>div classwp-block-cover__image-background wp-image-532 size-full has-parallax stylebackground-position:50% 50%;background-image:url(https://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Dry_land_cracked_5.webp)>/div>span aria-hiddentrue classwp-block-cover__background has-background-dim-0 has-background-dim stylebackground-color:#ae8560>/span>div classwp-block-cover__inner-container has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-cover-is-layout-12243e0f wp-block-cover-is-layout-constrained>p classhas-text-align-center has-large-font-size>/p>/div>/div>img classcover-mobile srchttps://courageousscientistsaward.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Dry_land_cracked_5.webp alt />/div>div idthe-award classwp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained stylepadding-top:2rem;padding-bottom:2rem>h2 classwp-block-heading>THE AWARD/h2>p>On November 15, 2025, scientists from six continents will receive the em>Courageous Scientists Award for Climate and Environmental Justice/em>strong> /strong>for the first time.
