CAB Focus
Climate insights for Education Abroad
and Transnational Education teams.
Targeted strategies for climate
conscious teams.
Climate action is gaining momentum in international education. From sustainability rankings and climate action commitments, institutions across the globe have access to a range of tools to help measure and mitigate their climate impact.
Now, individual Education Abroad and Transnational Education (TNE) teams can lead the way on climate action.
CAB Focus offers the same globally comparable insights and benchmarks on sustainability policies, practices and emissions as the Climate Action Barometer. While the latter takes a holistic view of an institution’s internationalisation activity, CAB Focus empowers individual teams to hone in on their specific area and take action sooner, rather than later.

for Education Abroad.
About
At its heart, education abroad is about enhancing global awareness. Although our work is a force for good, we can’t afford to turn a blind eye to its negative impact on the climate and sustainability.
Is your team keen to reduce its climate impact, but struggling to know where to start? Are you looking to embed sustainability into your program design and empower your students to make more climate-friendly choices?
Just as COVID-19 forced us to reimagine education abroad in a world without travel, climate change offers an opportunity to rethink the design and delivery of our programs for a healthier planet.

CAB Focus
for Transnational Education.
About
Many universities face a major challenge; how to balance their sustainability ambitions and carbon reduction targets with maintaining a strong international program. Transnational Education (TNE) is increasingly seen as part of the potential toolkit to tackle this dilemma.
Increasing student access to the benefits of a global education, without the cost and emissions associated with international travel, can only be a good thing… but it’s certainly not a panacea.
Whether it’s part of a deliberate strategy to balance international growth with reducing emissions, or simply a happy by-product, TNE affords education providers with various opportunities to expand their global reach at a lower cost to the planet.
CAB Focus is the perfect tool to help assess and reduce the climate impact of different TNE delivery modes and models.
