Event details

Interested in joining a climate science workshop? Climate Fresk is a 3 hour interactive workshop based on the IPCC reports - the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.

This collaborative Climate Fresk workshop will teach you the fundamental science behind climate change and empower you to take action through small group discussion, reflection on emotions and collaborative action planning. Suitable for anyone wanting to develop their understanding of this topic.

Climate Fresk runs all over the world and supports the power of small-scale discussions creating large-scale change towards climate in terms of attitudes and action. The workshop is a card-based activity/discussion where you will learn about climate change and your feelings towards it, providing empowerment through understanding.

The workshop is presented by the University's Environmental Sustainability at York (ESAY) Facilitator Team - a team of staff and students from a range of backgrounds who will help you navigate the workshop, lead the room and encourage you to explore a variety of themes as part of the Fresk community.
