In this episode, you'll get to know a few of our very own CANIE members and how they built their own, mini climate learning community through books. In 2023, six CANIE members (including today's host, Amy) came together to read a single climate-focused book together over 10 weeks. The result was such an engaging, enjoyable, learning-friendly space that we decided to make it an ongoing, climate-focused book club we've lovingly nicknamed the “Book Nook.” Join us for a discussion on how the Book Nook came to be, what we've learned along the way, and how to start your own climate-focused book club.

As the climate crisis becomes more and more pressing, there is no way to keep ignoring that if we want to address the environmental topic we need to expand our focus on many other issues of social justice. In this podcast, we explore the intersectionality between climate change and social justice incorporating the Global South perspective of Dr. Samia Chasi and Dr. Savo Heleta.

Studying abroad is an incredible resource to open people's eyes and minds, but we can always improve - and will need to update - our methods of delivering study abroad experiences. Antonio Gutiérrez Pérez shares his ideas on how we need to change study abroad for the better through regenerativity. Previously on the CANIE podcast, we've discussed what "regenerativity" means in theory, but what does it mean in practice? This episode features Antonio Gutiérrez Pérez, Head at Celei Regenerative Education, who talks about his approach to regeneration at Celei and how international educators can holistically apply regenerative practices to create the most impactful experiences for students.  Want to know more or collaborate with Celei?

Join CANIE co-host Amy Marcus for a conversation with Suzanne Willever and Rebecca Collins, who share with us all about their collaboration across departments at Temple University. Over the past few years, Suzanne and Rebecca have worked together to bridge the gap between education abroad and sustainability, organizing events, funding student learning opportunities, educating the campus community, and partnering with the local community. Along the way, they've forged not only a productive working relationship but a supportive friendship. They provide their biggest takeaways from their time working together, plus tips and tricks for collaborating with the office of sustainability on your own campus - and even where to find resources if your campus doesn't have its own dedicated sustainability office.

In this episode, CANIE co-host Kelly Davis speaks with Daniel Bloch from the International Air Transport Association (IATA) about the different pipelines towards different energy sources in airplanes.

The 2020 pandemic has forced international education to change in many ways, including the overnight change from the much-beloved in-person conferences to virtual. In this episode, CJ is joined by CANIE Co-host Evelien Renders, Information Manager in internationalization at Radboud University, to talk to two associations: the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE) and the Inter-American Organization for Higher Education (OIHE) about their organizations' views on climate justice and action, and the benefits and challenges of virtual, bi-annual, and annual conference models.

COIL, short for Collaborative Online International Learning, is a hot topic of conversation. In this Episode, CJ is joined by CANIE Co-Host, and CANIE Summit [Europe] Presenter, Simone Hackett - senior lecturer and head of internationalization at The Hague University in The Netherlands. Simone has worked with COIL since 2012 and in a surprise twist that CJ did not expect, also worked with guest Keiko Ikeda, Professor in the Division of International Affairs, and KU-COIL Coordinator at Kansai University on a COIL collaboration! In this episode Simon and Keiko introduce the topic of COIL, the opportunities it presents for internationalization at home, subject matter well-suited to COIL, as well as best practices for getting COIL embedded in an institution. Simone and Keiko also discuss how COIL has changed as a result of COVID and why it presents an opportunity for sustainable internationalization.

On this episode of the pod, Adrienne Fusek once again joins CJ as CANIE Co-Host to talk about an upcoming CANIE Live "Climate Justice and International Education" discussion series. They chat with series moderator Ine Williams, a CANIE board member and Melissa Lee, CEO of The Green Program and a panelist for Part 1 of the series.

What the heck is CANIE? In this second episode, we talk to our two co-founders: Ailsa Lamont and Pii-Tulia Nikula on the 5W of their Climate Action Network. Who are they? When and where did they start CANIE? Why climate change? The conversation continues to the growing international education community's interest towards climate action, and the network's vision, plans, and challenges today and the future. Finally, we discuss the various ways our listeners can get involved with CANIE.

In the inaugural episode of the CANIE Climate Dialogues, CANIE Co-Founder Ailsa Lamont pops in to talk about the recent International Education Climate Action Summit [Europe] and what's next for our grassroots organization. Then we kick off our dialogue with Linh Do, a Climate Reality Leader and all-around impressive climate communication expert from Australia, to discuss what we're up against with the Climate Crisis.
