      倫敦政治經濟學院(LSE)宣布將成立全球可持續發展學院

      2024-11-14 16:06 來源: 清華大學氣候變化研究院

      倫敦政治經濟學院(LSE)的全球可持續性學院將匯集專家,創建網絡以實現變革,并培養下一代領導人。

      ——LSE校長兼副校長,拉里·克萊默教授

      全球可持續性學院將在格蘭瑟姆氣候變化與環境研究所的開創性工作以及LSE各學術部門和研究人員的杰出貢獻基礎上進一步發展。它將由一個戰略委員會提供指導,該委員會由致力于學院愿景和雄心的全球領袖組成,致力于創造一個可持續的未來,包括:

      馬克·卡尼,布魯克菲爾德資產管理公司主席、過渡投資負責人、聯合國氣候行動和金融特使;
      恩戈齊·奧孔喬-伊韋阿拉,世界貿易組織總干事;
      阿馬蒂亞·森,經濟學家、哲學家和諾貝爾經濟學獎得主;
      艾代爾·特納勛爵,英國上議院成員和能源轉型委員會主席。
      旨在產生即時和長期影響,全球可持續性學院將:

      開創性地研究政策制定者面臨的五個關鍵挑戰:實現可持續增長和發展;創造可持續金融和商業;動員政治、法律和治理體系;轉變行為;以及保護和增強自然和生物多樣性。

      通過全球可持續性研究基金加速LSE的創新研究項目,利用LSE包容性和協作性的跨學科方法,借鑒我們社會科學領域的專業知識。

      通過向全球學生提供獎學金支持來培養未來的領導人,建立在LSE著名的教學基礎上,將可持續性嵌入LSE的核心本科和研究生課程,并開發新的聯合學位項目和高管教育項目。

      作為一個強有力的召集機構,發展推動變革所需的本地、國家和國際網絡。

      全球可持續性學院的概念由尼古拉斯·斯特恩勛爵和全球綠色科技企業家、LSE校友雷·張(2002年運營研究碩士)提出。

      該學院旨在通過社會政策創新解決復雜的全球可持續性問題。通過推進政策塑造、治理和合作伙伴關系,可以在各個行業和部門采取集體行動。在過去二十年中,LSE從眾多捐贈者和資助者那里獲得了對可持續性工作的廣泛支持,雷·張已初步承諾提供2500萬英鎊以推進全球學院的建立。

      LSE校友雷·張在承諾與母校共同創立這一倡議時表示:“我相信,社會政策創新對于我們共同實現凈零排放至關重要。全球可持續性學院將加速并推進這一領域的研究,以促進一個更綠色、更負責任的世界?!?/div>

      新學院匯集了社會科學及其他領域的專家,并與包括氣候科學家、政府、非政府組織、民間社會以及商業、金融和法律領域的全球領先學術機構和專家緊密合作。

      在宣布這一消息時,LSE校長兼副校長拉里·克萊默教授評論道:“氣候變化已經在破壞我們的自然環境,帶來了巨大的經濟、政治和社會后果。為了避免災難,政策制定者需要以堅實的、基于證據的研究為指導。全球可持續性學院將匯集來自學術界、工業界和政策制定者的專家,探索前進的道路,創建網絡以實現變革,并培養下一代領導人來解決這一復雜的全球問題。我對雷·張的愿景和支持表示極大的感謝,這使得這一切成為可能,同時也感謝我們的戰略委員會成員,他們將指導LSE在這一努力中前進?!?/div>

      全球可持續性學院的首屆主席尼古拉斯·斯特恩勛爵表示:“世界正處于一條不可持續的增長和發展道路上。我們有真正的緊迫性采取行動,以避免我們面臨的巨大風險,并在一條新的、不同的道路中存在著巨大的機會。但創造這條新道路的挑戰是困難和深刻的。障礙在很大程度上在于經濟、政治和社會。它們也是不可避免的國際性。因此,LSE無疑是進行關鍵學術工作和政策分析的正確場所?!?/div>

      “我們非常感謝雷·張的愿景和慷慨,使我們能夠開始這所新學院?!?/div>

      英文原文如下:
      A new Global School of Sustainability at LSE will advance global efforts to shape a brighter future for all that is sustainable, resilient, hopeful, prosperous and inclusive. 

      Launching in 2025, it will become a centre of expertise, informing policy, helping to rapidly and equitably create the economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protections crucial to ensuring a sustainable future, while convening global experts and training the future generation of leaders. 

      “The Global School of Sustainability will bring together experts, create networks to deliver change, and train the next generation of leaders?!?/div>

      - LSE President and Vice Chancellor, Professor Larry Kramer

      The Global School of Sustainability will build on and complement further the pathbreaking work of the Grantham Research Institute for Climate Change and the Environment and existing outstanding contributions from academic departments and researchers across LSE. It will be informed by insight from a Strategy Board comprising global leaders in the sphere committed to the School’s vision and ambitions in creating a sustainable future, including:

      Mark Carney, Chair Brookfield Asset Management, Head of Transition Investing and United Nations Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance;  

      Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Director-General, World Trade Organisation;  

      Amartya Sen, Economist, Philosopher and Nobel Laureate (Economics), and;  

      Lord Adair Turner, House of Lords and Chair of the Energy Transitions Commission. 

      Designed to deliver immediate and long-term impact, the Global School of Sustainability will: 

      Pioneer innovative research addressing five key challenges for policymakers: generating sustainable growth and development; creating sustainable finance and business; mobilising political, legal and governance systems; transforming behaviours; and protecting and enhancing nature and biodiversity. 

      Accelerate innovative research projects across LSE through a Global Sustainability Research Fund harnessing LSE’s inclusive and collaborative interdisciplinary approach that draws from our faculty’s expertise across the social sciences.   

      Train future leaders through scholarship support available to students from around the world, building on LSE's renowned teaching, embedding sustainability across LSE’s core undergraduate and postgraduate courses and developing new joint degree programmes and Executive Education offers.

      Act as a powerful convening body, developing the local, national and international networks necessary to drive impactful change.  

      The idea for the Global School of Sustainability was conceptualised by Lord Professor Nicholas Stern and global greentech entrepreneur and LSE alumnus Lei Zhang (MSc Operational Research 2002). 

      The Global School is founded to solve complex global sustainability issues through social policy innovation. By advancing policy-shaping, governance and partnerships, collective action can be taken across industries and sectors. Alongside extensive support for sustainability work at LSE from numerous donors and funders over the past two decades, Lei Zhang has made an initial commitment of £25m GBP to advance the establishment of the Global School.  

      In making his commitment to co-found the initiative at his alma mater, LSE alumnus Lei Zhang said: “I believe that social policy innovation is critical for us to collectively reach net zero. The Global School of Sustainability will accelerate and advance research in this area to foster a greener and more responsible world.”  

      The new School brings together experts from across the social sciences and beyond, partnering closely with other leading academic institutions and experts around the world, including climate scientists, governments, NGOs, civil society and leaders in the business, finance and legal sectors.  

      On the announcement, LSE President and Vice Chancellor, Professor Larry Kramer, commented: “Climate change is already devastating our natural environment, with huge economic, political and social consequences. To stave off disaster, policymakers need to be guided by robust, evidence-based research. The Global School of Sustainability will bring together experts from across academia, industry and policy to explore ways forward, create networks to deliver change, and train the next generation of leaders to address this complex, global issue. I am immensely grateful for the vision and support of Lei Zhang which has made this possible, as well as our Strategy Board members, who will steer LSE in this endeavour.”  

      The Global School of Sustainability's inaugural Chair, Professor Lord Nicholas Stern, said: “The world is on an unsustainable path of growth and development. There is a real urgency to act to avoid the immense risks we face and there are great opportunities in a new and different path. But the challenges of creating that new way are difficult and deep. The obstacles lie in large measure in the economics, the politics, and society. They are also inescapably international. Thus, LSE is surely the right place for the crucial academic work and policy analysis to take place. 

      “We are very grateful for the vision and generosity of Lei Zhang that enables us to embark on this new School.”
