Workshop Details
We will use the Climate Action Venn Diagram, developed by Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson, to help connect your strengths, spheres of influence, and passions with the climate solutions that interest you. We will explore each section through reflection, writing, and discussion.
We hope you will leave the workshop with some new action ideas, as well as a robust understanding of the Climate Action Venn Diagram as a brainstorming tool that you can revisit whenever you need. You will also receive a take-home package so you can easily revisit the exercise in the future.
This exercise is useful for people who are new to wondering what they can do about climate change, as well as those who are already involved in the climate movement and wish to sustain their participation without burning out.
