Racing Extinction: Climate, Politics & Global Leadership

Oxford Royale's new inspirational course on Climate, Politics and Global Leadership explores how the fields of climate science, politics, law, and leadership can work together to beat extinction.

Join us to tackle some of the grand challenges facing your generation as you work to publish the “2024 Oxford Accords”—a list of ideas and innovations created by you.

Be inspired by extraordinary global thought leaders and diverse faculty working on the front lines of climate change, water resources, food instability, and wildlife conservation.

You’ll be staying in the historic colleges of the University of Oxford to experience authentic undergraduate life. It’s a unique opportunity to learn about medicine in the settings where ground-breaking discoveries have been made, and a taste of higher education to set you on a path to academic and career achievement.

Through a variety of teaching methods, including interactive lectures, workshops, project-based group work and masterclasses, you’ll gain knowledge of your subject, additional insights and the opportunity to examine and grow your ambitions.

Our Racing Extinction summer school program is delivered by a world class faculty of experts and teachers, many from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, and Ivy League colleges, who bring out the best in every individual.

Through small class sizes and a range of different perspectives, we deliver a holistic learning and development experience. You’ll return home with new-found confidence alongside the insights you've gained.

We've welcomed young people from more than 170 nationalities since 2004, and a summer with us is the perfect opportunity to gain a global perspective, increase cultural awareness and develop an international network of friends and connections.
