My question is, what do the universities gain from this practice ?

We all know they aren't doing this out of the goodness of their hearts.

What is the quid pro quo ?

It smells when looked at from that angle -- not just GT, but ALL of the honorary degrees.

Cheers

In this particular case they haven't done it randomly and you need to look at the reasons why a very deranged activist who has plenty of issues and no other academic qualifications was awarded a doctorate.

She is unable to understand basic physics at the very least just as the trans activists are unable to understand basis biology and argue there are countless of sexes or genders.

It's a mockery of the system regardless of the fact the system isn't perfect ot great. I mean the academic system of awarding degrees and certificates.

Just more proof that the climate change movement is a cult.

Greta Thunberg: No school leaving certificate but the next honorary doctorate – this time in theology

If her busy schedule allows, the busy activist will not be able to graduate from high school until the summer of this year. The acceptance speech for receiving the honorary doctorate at the Theological Faculty of the University of Helsinki must now be interposed.

The climate activist will be attending high school in her hometown of Stockholm in Sweden until the summer of 2023, so she has not yet had a valid school leaving certificate in her much-decorated existence. In the summer of 2018, Thunberg began to protest in front of the Swedish parliament in Stockholm and attracted international attention with a targeted accompanying media campaign. In the same year she started her so-called “school strike for the climate”, only to meet the youth delegate for the German Society for the United Nations, Luisa Neubauer, purely by chance in December 2018 at the at the world climate summit in Katowice, Poland.

In 2019, Thunberg received the Alternative Nobel Prize and the German Sustainability Prize. Furthermore, the honorary award of the “About You Awards 2019” in the category “Empowerment” for her commitment as the initiator of the “Fridays for Future” movement. In October of the same year she was awarded an honorary doctorate from the Belgian University of Mons. In December, the Amnesty honorary title “Ambassador of Conscience” followed, as well as the German “Golden Camera” and the award “Woman of the Year” in Sweden.

For a short time, the young, busy businesswoman was also considered a hot candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize, which was pushed by the media, but to the great disappointment of her worldwide fan base, this did not happen

Of course it is.
Just as the transgender movement.

It looks like Dr Thunberg has two doctorates and not just one. Anyone knows more about this matter?

What's the difference to Oprah?
Or other political, other social, cultural activists? The most hd has Daisaku Ikeda,

His accomplishments are honored internationally; in Japan he has been described as a "controversial figure" over several decades through the 1990s in relation to the political party Kōmeitō, which he founded, and has been the subject of libelous accusations in Japanese media.

So to all your questions: yes

If you go to my opening page you will see that most people awarded honourary doctorates had already years in education and academia or years serving the community having had plenty of contributions in their fields of history, sociology, humanities, politics, and wherever else.

Greta Thunberg has no place among them and neither do any other political activists.

The fact that other activists have received doctorates or awards shows only how troubled and ridiculous the system is. It doesn't justify why a deranged activist should receive s doctorate.

I feel it just shows you don't understand the system.

It's not a recent Greta specific development. It's been that way since the 15th century.

I doesn't bestow her with immortality or the deed to your life.

Yes, to those who have at least offered something. In this case a deranged activist who hasn't even finished school has received a doctorate. How absurd is this...

Honorary degree, aka fake degree with no meaning.

I have the utmost confidence that she will do the right thing and bicycles from Stockholm to Helsinki (and back again) to show us she is not just a virtue-signalling hypocrite.

Not a hypocrite at all.

Well if she drives or takes a plane, that would of course be spewing deadly CO2 into the atmosphere, contributing to man-made climate change.

Doctorate please. She hasn't finished school yet but I suppose you can get a masters and a doctorate before finishing school. As the matter of fact you don't have to go to school at all and you don't need any education.

Being a climate activist is more than enough!

And as always let us not forget that the climate change ideology is as legitimate as the transgender ideology.

Knowing the retards on the left, they'll expect her to do surgeries now, like Dr. Jill Biden does.

Do you still need medical degrees to perform surgeries? If you are an activist you can do it without any qualifications. Activism is more than enough to make you bright and wise.
