A brief description of the innovative policy, practice, program, or outcome:

The John H. Chafee Center for International Business provides comprehensive international trade services for businesses to expand into international markets. As a one of a kind organization on Bryant's campus, this free standing entity contributes a great deal to Bryant's culture, reach, and Rhode Island's economic sustainability.

Bryant's Chafee Center has been active in the local community to promote sustainability in the areas of energy efficiency, alternatives, business development, education, and curriculum. In one case, the Chafee Center analyzed 53 high schools in RI to explore their capabilities for using alternative energy sources from solar and wind, to other alternatives like bio-mass and biothermal to improve their energy efficiency opportunities.

The Chafee Center has conducted various training programs and public forums around the state to educate people on techniques in energy efficiency and the practical application of developing and utilizing alternative energy sources.
