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.
You can find more on the Green Recovery Now website.

The college is delighted to welcome a new Oxford PharmaGenesis DPhil Scholarship in Translational Health.
The scholarship has been established through an endowment gift of £1,660,000 from Oxford PharmaGenesis, now part of the Klick family, creating a permanent fund to support doctoral students undertaking outstanding postgraduate research in the field of translational health at Nuffield Department of Primary Care @oxford_uni
Yesterday our alumni celebrated the 2026 Mid-Autumn Festival in Hong Kong alongside @st_annescollege alumni at the two societies’ first co-organised event.
The group gathered at a Michelin-starred restaurant to mark the joyful occasion, make new connections and enjoy exquisite traditional food together.
It is wonderful to see the two college alumni societies bringing the wider Oxford community together for what Nathaniel Chan (MBA, 2016), co-chair of the Green Templeton College Hong Kong Alumni Society, described as ‘a memorable occasion’.
Plans are already taking shape for a hike and karaoke event in November, following an ‘impressive impromptu a cappella performance by one alumnus’ at the lunch.
