Then join us for this workshop to refresh and reconnect with NNOCCI content and community! Adam Ratner and Jeanette Johnston […]
As climate communicators, we know we need the biggest team of climate champions we can get to address climate change - so making our spaces and conversations inclusive to everyone, no matter who they are or where they come from, is critical. In this workshop, we'll review the basics of inclusive language, showcase examples, reflect on potential unconscious biases, and brainstorm with our peers simple ways to make our programs, organizations, and practices more inclusive to all. We hope to see you there!
Often the hardest part of climate conversations is the ask of our audiences - how do we leave people inspired and empowered to take meaningful, community-level action to address climate change? And how can those actions create co-benefits for folks in their own communities? Join the JEDI Council and Training Committee for the latest on how to talk about solutions and how to assess if the solutions really help those most at risk from climate change.
Earlier this year NNOCCI wrapped our grant from NOAA’s Environmental Literacy Program; the grant’s goals were to update and integrate JEDI principles into our work, while developing a Trainer Course pilot program. Come hear about the course’s completion, evaluative process, and lessons learned!
