Transitioning to a carbon-neutral economy does not just mean switching away from fossil fuels, it is, rather, a paradigm shift in development, which will give rise to a new model of modernization that can benefit the world and contribute to a green and prosperous future.

The Global Alliance of Universities on Climate (GAUC) is proud to announce the launch the brand new 2025 ‘Climate x’ Leadership Training Program. The program aims to empower youth with the knowledge, skills, and tools, helping them globally envision a sustainable future, take meaningful action, and unlock their potential as talents for the carbon-neutral future.

The youth generation is the backbone of the net-zero future, not only the inheritor, but also the owner, creator, and leader of this future. The ideology of ‘Climate x’ emphasizes that the global development issues we are facing are closely related to each other. To achieve carbon neutrality, it is needed to respect nature, cross-disciplinary barriers, and explore innovative solutions from the perspective of synergies between climate action and the other 16 SDGs
