Green Recovery Now
Green Recovery Now is an Oxford University student-led movement.
The group say: ‘We feel passionately that the climate crisis must be tackled urgently and, being university students, we want to make use of research and connections with researchers to support the argument for a global green and fair recovery from COVID-19. There are currently more than 30 Oxford University students in seven different teams. The intention is reaching out to students around the world. We want to work together as a global movement to put pressure on our governments to invest in climate-friendly policies to boost economic recovery from the COVID pandemic, based on the best scientific research.’
Green Recovery Now was born in Green Templeton College during the summer of 2020.

Today is Giving Tuesday - a global celebration of generosity, marked in over 80 countries around the world.
This celebration is a wonderful opportunity to unite our international community through the shared act of giving. We invite you to join us by making a gift to student support. Your generosity enables talented students from around the world to access an Oxford education and to thrive personally and academically throughout their time here.
Thank you to everyone who supports the college. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
The college has received the final consents for a major transformation of the Radcliffe Observatory.
The project will restore the south face, improve landscaping and create an accessible new entrance through the East Wing. It will reenergise the Observatory as a focal point of the college and the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter.
