Meeting of the representatives of MAK university consortium

Authority representatives of the universities that make up the Interuniversity Climate Academy (MAK) met on November 9, 2023 at the AGH University to summarise the first edition of the joint project and discuss the possibilities for using the potential of the MAK consortium to implement other pro-climate initiatives.

In the meeting participated:

  • on the part of the AGH University: Rector, Prof. Jerzy Lis, Vice-Rector for Cooperation, Professor Rafał Wiśniowski, and representatives of the Faculty of the Geo-Data Science, Geodesy, and Environmental Engineering, Associate Professor Tomasz Bergier and Dr Mateusz Jakubiak;
  • on the part of the SGH Warsaw School of Economics: Rector, Professor Piotr Wachowiak, and Professor Dorota Niedziółka;
  • on the part of the University of Wrocław: Rector, Professor Robert Olkiewicz, Professor Maciej Kryza, and Wojciech Hann, Chair of the UWr Council;
  • representatives of companies: Vice Chairman of the Board of Kraków Water, Paweł Senderek, Director of Technology and Innovationat Kraków Water, Bartosz Łuszczek, and President of Ecol-Unicon, Wojciech Falkowski.

Worth noting is also the fact that the Interuniversity Climate Academy, appointed in February 2022, is a unique initiative on a Polish scale undertaken by three universities with significant support from the banking and business sector. It is aimed at training professionals who want to increase their knowledge on climate change and, above all, gain practical skills in this field. The AGH University of Krakow is responsible for technical aspects, the SGH Warsaw School of Economics for economic and business ones, and the University of Wrocław in terms of humanities and naturals sciences. Students of MAK studies will receive a diploma issued by the three universities.
