Sustainability and OxCan

Since September 2020 I've been involved with the newly-formed Oxford Climate Alumni Network and in January 2021, I took pleasure in accepting a role on the their first Board as the UK Regional Climate Action Director. You may well be asking - What is this network? What does it do? Can I get involved?

Quite simply, we are a group of Oxford Alumni who are concerned about climate change and want to use our collective power and collaborative efforts to drive change. 

Whether you're an environmental expert or a newbie wanting to learn more, we will be running a series of wide-ranging events throughout 2021 looking at topics such sustainable textiles, sustainable tourism, food, farming, British flower growing and supporting sustainability in small and medium businesses. Please get in touch if you are from a non Oxford background and would like to know more about training or arranging training sessions.

We are also looking for individuals with expert knowledge in a range of environmental or decarbonisation related topics who would be interested in acting as mentors or knowledge contributors. 

Additionally, we are also looking for other Oxford Alumni to become 'Net Zero Champions' so if you are already involved with, or planning to become involved in, decarbonisation in your organisation or community then we would love to hear from you.
