The Global Alliance of Universities on Climate (GAUC) was formed in January 2019, in Davos, Switzerland. During the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum, eight universities jointly issued a statement representing a commitment to establish the Alliance. The founding members include the Australian National University, University of California, Berkeley, the University of Cambridge, Imperial College London, London School of Economics and Political Science, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of Tokyo and Tsinghua University. Four additional members were later invited to join GAUC, including Stellenbosch University, Federal University of Rio de Janeiro, Indian Institute of Science, and Sciences Po. Columbia University, the University of Oxford and Yale University joined the alliance at the beginning of 2020. These 15 universities form GAUC.
