Workshop giving you actions to take to be an effective Climate Advocate with your time, effort and expertise

About this Event

Outcomes of the Training:

  • You will have a new set of communications tools at your disposal, designed to enable you to effectively talk about divisive issues.
  • You will learn the power of being for solutions rather than against inaction, of being interested instead of interesting, and of exercising citizen power instead of seeking political force.
  • You will gain the confidence to educate elected officials who you might have previously viewed as inaccessible, and neighbors you may have thought unreachable.
