The university will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights. Neither Harvard nor any other private university can allow itself to be taken over by the federal government. hrvd.me/ResearchFunding25t

“No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.” - President Alan Garber hrvd.me/GarberRespond347t
Can confirm that @EUI_EU is every bit as lovely as people said it would be. Grateful for the experience and everyone I met along the way. What a year…

OPEC’s letter conveys an old message with a new tone. It says “they are coming for us - for real now”. Bad news for COP28, though few had high expectations.
But NB: in a sense the letter confirms that the energy transition never had more momentum. So gotta keep the moment going.
Just announced at #COP28—parties reached an agreement on the Santiago Network for loss & damage, whose secretariat will be hosted by UNDRR & UNOPS. The Network will provide technical assistance to developing countries that are acutely vulnerable to the effects of climate change. – at Dubai, United Arab Emirates

On the eve of #COP28, I'm re-upping this piece I wrote for @DaedalusJournal. As #climate scholars, it is our professional responsibility to engage in climate politics.
We all know that the climate crisis is here. It's time for all hands on deck. 1/n

I’m so excited to share that today marks my first day as full-time Associate Professor (“Chargé de cours”) in International Environmental Politics at @REPI_ULB @SciencePoULB @ULBruxelles!
If you’re wondering why the international response to loss and damage has been delayed over the last 30 years, our new open-access article in @GEPJournal offers a typology of negotiating tactics countries have used to obstruct financing for this issue.
direct.mit.edu/glep/article/…
My co-authors and I show how these tactics have shaped political and legal understandings of loss and damage—and how they have affected potential policy solutions. We hope this article helps actors better anticipate and respond to barriers to action in future UNFCCC negotiations.
Thank you to @elisa_calliari, @adelle_SIDS, and others at Global Environmental Politics for compiling this special issue on loss and damage at a time when identifying solutions has never been more pressing // @Danielle_Falzon, @Island_Scholar, @TimmonsRoberts, @Fahad_2675
