Held at the Permanent Mission of Ireland to the United Nations in New York, on Monday,12 May 2025, and hosted by University College Dublin (UCD), senior leaders in sustainability and global education from UCD's partner universities and organisations gathered to discuss how universities can lead with purpose in a rapidly changing world with many competing priorities.

The symposium included panel contributions from CANIE and CANIE Accord signatories, Northeastern University, University of Richmond and The Forum on Education Abroad, and explored themes including embedding sustainability into core institutional values, preparing students for an uncertain future, and the need for cross-institutional collaboration.

The symposium also marked a milestone following UCD’s 2024 signing of the CANIE Accord, reaffirming its leadership in sustainable international education. Thanks to UCD for convening partners on this important topic, and to Ambassador Fergal Mythen for his warm welcome and ongoing support.

This award, granted at the discretion of CBIE's Board of Directors, acknowledges an individual or group for bringing cutting-edge knowledge to the field of international education.

As a co-op, Alethea is committed to supporting our community and like-minded organizations. In keeping with this truth, revenue from the course will be shared with CANIE and members of the Global Knowledge Collective, or their named recipient.

Following the CANIE COP26 Leaders Forum, back in November 2021, our sector has come together at the highest level to organize around the truth that we are facing a climate crisis that International Education has a role to play in leading on action, and a set of principles to guide those actions as we work towards net-zero.
