Intergenerational Climate Organizing: A Space for Dialogue

November 30, 2022 at 4pm (PT) / 7pm (ET)  |  Webinar

 

On Nov 30th, 2022 we joined an intergenerational dialogue to begin understanding and dissolving the boundaries that are holding us back from harnessing true intergenerational power. 

 

In order to work together constructively to demand bold action to tackle the climate crisis, we must practice listening to and learning from each other. This means learning from and working with people within and outside our own generation.
