Find your Climate Sweet Spot
Many people are motivated to work on climate issues but often don't know where to start or associate climate action with activism, protesting, or politics. What the world really needs is people working in all industries with many different skill sets working on climate issues. This workshop aims to help participants to help identify their sweet spot for working in the climate space.
The agenda design is for an online version of this workshop, but you can easily adapt the activities to different situations, for example by collecting ideas on sticky notes or a whiteboard instead of using an online chat setup.
Session Objectives
