Climate-U Network
The Climate-U network brings together universities from around the world committed to working together to address the climate crisis. It grew out of the original Climate-U project (Transforming Universities for a Changing Climate) which ran from February 2020 -January 2024, funded by the Global Challenges Research Fund.
The aim of the network is to strengthen climate action within each institution and create new collaborative ventures through international dialogue and exchange.
