This transnational, online program is for high school students from the U.S. and China with a sincere desire to connect and collaborate across cultures and learn how to tackle the climate crisis.The U.S.–China Co-Lab on Climate Solutions is a spring-term course, an active lab for collaborative practice engaging both Chinese and American students in one class as co-learners.
In this program, students will:
- study and experience the principles and best practices of cross-cultural collaboration;
- explore existing models for U.S.–China collaboration specifically;
- learn the fundamentals of the climate change issues facing our planet;
- assess local, bilateral, and global climate action so far;
- actively imagine their own place in the future of U.S.–China relations; and
- gain cooperative experience and skills on climate to apply toward future studies and professions.
The program features guest speakers from the Stanford University faculty and other world-class institutions, sharing their expertise on collaborative models and strategies; environmental impacts; clean energy and energy markets; climate justice; and other topics.
Coursework will be highly interactive and discussion-oriented, with an emphasis on small-group assignments, culminating in a collaborative project that could be implemented in the students’ own communities. The program will be conducted online, using Zoom video conferencing and the Canvas course platform. Real-time meetings will be held on Friday evenings (U.S.) / Saturday mornings (China).
This is a joint program of SPICE’s Stanford e-China (for students in China) and China Scholars Program (for U.S. students) and is co-taught by SPICE instructors Carey Moncaster and Tanya Lee.
