How will climate change impact Aotearoa New Zealand’s tertiary education sector between now and 2100?
Te Whare Wānanga o Awanuiārangi are part of a group of twelve tertiary institutions from across Aotearoa New Zealand forming the Tertiary Education Sector Climate Futures Group (TESCFG), which won the Powerful Partnerships category of the Green Gown Awards, which recognise exceptional sustainability initiatives being undertaken by the world’s higher education institutions.
TESCFG’s winning initiative was a model of four different climate scenarios and how tertiary institutes may respond to these. These were published in a report, "Climate change scenarios for the Aotearoa New Zealand Tertiary education sector".
