Take the First Step Toward Real Change: Tau'S New Climate Change Masters Degree
"Only regulation and legislation that succeed in fostering public awareness and support, mobilizing individuals and communities and facilitating real behavioral change will have a long-term, measurable impact," Dan Rabinowitz says.
That's the message behind Tel Aviv University's new Master of Arts in Social and Policy Aspects of Climate Change, the first program of its kind anywhere in the Middle East, per a press release.
TAU's program is designed to give students "the ability to effect positive, lasting change wherever their career takes them," Rabinowitz says.

They'll also be mentored by some of the world's leading
