The regional university states, USP is unique because it allows and facilitates research that can only be conducted in the Pacific, including research on climate change, cultural aspects, vulnerable coastal communities, and food security, to name a few.

As a leading research institute in the region, USP will tomorrow night reward its top researchers with funds that could be accessed by recipients through their respective Schools strictly for the purpose of supporting and enhancing the research interests of recipients.
