  • Nov 18 - Just Transition / Education

Université Laval

Accelerating the climate transition of communities involves sharing knowledge and innovations. In addition to integrating these concepts into their training programs, Canadian and international universities are increasing the number of partnerships and innovative collaborations that combine different types of knowledge and experiences, between universities and with many different organisations in order to generate the necessary impetus to achieve climate transition objectives. The panelists will present various original and structuring initiatives for sharing and transferring knowledge in the community, with different kind of partners. Discussions will provide an opportunity to explore in more depth the conditions, challenges encountered and success factors of this type of collaborations, as well as the benefits and impacts.
