At IOI, we are very excited to learn that CANIE, Climate Action Network for International Educators, recognizes us as leaders in International Education and as an organization working towards impactful climate change. Our Director of Operations and International Partnerships, Daniel Ponce Taylor, will be joining a select few in the Leaders Forum at the upcoming COP26 Climate Action in International Education Week in November.
Daniel, along with other key leaders and influencers in international education and in sustainability in higher education, will be working together to, as described by CANIE, "develop and strengthen our sector’s response to the global challenge of climate change."
You may have noticed that this event coincides with the UN COP26 Climate Talks in Glasgow. This is intentional, making for a more powerful message, "to be a call to action; an opportunity to advance an ambitious, shared climate action agenda for the field of international education."
We look forward to hearing more about the discussions and are excited to continue to work towards a more sustainable future alongside these great organizations and other key players.
