Professor Robert Walker looks at global allocation of COVID-19 vaccine in new paper
Emeritus Fellow Professor Robert Walker has written a paper discussing how to distribute a COVID-19 vaccine across the world. Professor Walker is currently a Professor in the China Academy of Social Management and the School of Sociology at Beijing Normal University.
The paper, titled ‘Who should receive the COVID-19 vaccine first?’ has been published by the Oxford Prospects and Global Development Institute (OPGDI), affiliated with Regent’s Park College at the University of Oxford.
The OPGDI focuses on the development of China-UK relations. It is an interdisciplinary body encouraging collaboration between researchers, practitioners and policy-makers across China and the UK.
The paper continues a conversation initiated during the first of OPGDI’s series of online ‘In Conversations’. Under the guidance of Dr Myra Blyth (Regent’s Park College), Professor Cécile Fabre (All Souls College) and Robert Walker discussed the Fair Priority Model for allocating vaccines against COVID-19 published recently in the US journal Nature.
Our EMBA and MBA alumni joined us on Friday for our last outdoor afternoon tea of the year.
Alumni from across the globe reunited with old friends, made new connections, and shared their career journeys since Oxford.
Our host, Vice Principal Professor Jonathan Reynolds, welcomed the group and shared the latest developments at Green Templeton College. Most importantly, he reminded them that here, they will always belong.
We can`t wait to welcome more of our community this week for Meeting Minds. We still have a few spaces for alumni wanting to join our college-based events (link in the comments).

There’s lots happening behind the scenes as work continues on the Radcliffe Observatory.
Here is a peek behind the scenes at the progress so far…
A wonderful evening for the Green Templeton community in Sydney. It is always special to see alumni reconnecting and making new connections wherever they are in the world.
Thank you to Oceania Group and everyone who joined the group’s inaugural annual dinner.
The group’s next gathering takes place in Brisbane on Tuesday 8 September – another welcome opportunity for our alumni and friends in the region to connect.
A great start to what we hope will become a growing tradition for the college`s community across Oceania.

Alumni in Switzerland came together in Geneva on Swiss National Day for the first in-person gathering of our college`s Switzerland Alumni Group.
After the group’s inaugural online meeting earlier in the year, the gathering was a chance to finally put faces to names, reconnect over memories of Green Templeton and Oxford and hear where life has taken everyone since.
Conversation ranged from career paths and professional exchanges to life in Switzerland and ideas for the growing alumni group.
Josephine Agyeman-Duah (DPhil Women’s and Reproductive Health, 2018), Chair of the Alumni Group, said:
‘It was splendid to reconnect with GTC alumni from different periods and to celebrate Swiss National Day together in Geneva. Our first in-person gathering was a wonderful opportunity to strengthen connections and our GTC alumni community in Switzerland.’
The group is now looking to establish a committee and hopes to connect with other Oxford and Cambridge alumni groups in Switzerland.

Happy International Cat Day! 🐾
It’s been quite the year for Vincent!
After several years of making the college his home, we are delighted to say that we have officially adopted him. A familiar and much-loved face around the college grounds, he has a special way of bringing smiles to everyone he meets.
We’re so proud to officially call him ours!
Happy International Cat Day, Vincent! 💚🐈⬛
