Governance
Catalyzing the Sector
Since 2020, the CANIE founding members elected a global board and began the work of organizing the highest levels of the sector and creating the structure for chapters to grow and thrive.
The Global Board composed of the Board Leadership Team (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer), Regular Board Members, Chapter Leadership, and a Student Representative. As the number of chapters grows around the world, the number of members on the board will change.
In 2022, the leadership and regular board members are as follows:
President - Ailsa Lamont
Vice-President - CJ Tremblay
Secretary - Fraser Cargill
Treasurer - Eddie West
Regular Member - Adrienne Fusek
Regular Member - Paul Loftus
Regular Member - Pii-Tuulia Nikula
Regular Member - Ine Williams
Student Member - Kayla Weiss
Global CANIE Board Leadership
The CANIE global board is responsible for steering the global strategy for CANIE and members are elected for 3 year terms.
Chapter Governance
Chapter Leadership is elected to support local international education on their climate action journeys to advance the level of dialogue and raise the collective ambition of regional bodies and institutions.
Each chapter has an elected President, Vice-President, and Secretary who are tasked with organizing the chapter and advancing CANIE's interest and practitioner knowledge in the region. The chapters are responsible for growing the chapter membership, supporting the global working groups, and hosting a series of educational and networking events.
CANIE members can become active chapter volunteers by contacting us and requesting to be put in touch with the chapter leadership.
