Energy Oxford Energy Seminar Series - Week 3 TT24: Leveraging the campus as a test bed for climate and sustainability leadership: Catalysing learning, imagination, and impact
DRINKS RECEPTION HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO CATERER ISSUES
Future climate and sustainability leadership within higher education and at MIT seeks to transcend traditional academic silos and drive toward new ways of learning, innovation, collaboration and an unwavering commitment to address the urgent global challenges created by climate change. Dr. Newman will present the model she launched at MIT built on a scales of impact foundation that recognizes that we cannot solve for sustainability within the walls of our campus alone, as we are completely integrated and reliant upon local, state, national, regional and global systems [from supply chain to policy to natural resources]. She will share how this involves a shift in organisational culture, values, and practices to align with the urgent need for climate action and environmental stewardship.
