COP27 - There’s more to COP than the table at the top
A reflection on the COP27 climate conference by attendee George Lakey, Programme Manager at the Association of Commonwealth Universities.
International collaboration in higher education leads to breakthroughs in knowledge, the free exchange of ideas, and enduring bonds between institutions and nations. But it begins with connections between people.
For more than 100 years, the ACU has brought students, scholars, academic leaders, and university professionals together across borders to forge fruitful and mutually beneficial partnerships with far-reaching impact.
While the shared language and structures of the Commonwealth create an ease of working together, the ACU offers valuable opportunities to put this advantage to practical use.
Meanwhile, our proud history of running world-class global scholarship schemes gives us unique expertise and insight into the value and impact of international educational experiences.
