Ailsa Lamont on the role of higher education in propelling climate action
Ailsa Lamont has had a long career in Australian universities, leading various international and social innovation departments. In 2016, she founded Pomegranate Global, a start-up dedicated to helping the education sector to tackle climate change, and co-founded the Climate Action Network for International Educators.
With Ailsa, we talked about Scotland, the value of studying abroad, being a climate reality leader, universities’ carbon footprint, the challenges with top-down university management, and having more women at the decision-making table.
