Our Team
At the center of CATE is a multidisciplinary group of individuals dedicated to educating the next generation of climate leaders, with areas of expertise ranging from World Languages to atmospheric chemistry and U.S. history. We seek to collaborate with educators, students, teachers unions, and MIT community members as much as possible.
