ONLINE WORKSHOP/ Dealing with the people factor challenges of climate change

explore 3 insights from neuroscience and psychology that can help to understand how to build climate and nature action in schools

In this workshop for teachers, non-formal educators and leaders of educational institutions, we will explore 3 insights from neuroscience and psychology that can help to understand how to build climate and nature action in schools: How can you avoid or bypass the growing polarisation of climate action? How do people change -or not? How do we bring people along on a journey of building whole-institution approaches to climate and nature action?

📣 Facilitated by neuroscientist & science communicator

Dr Kris De Meyer (Director, UCL Climate Action Unit) & Dr Jonathan Mille (Research Fellow in Climate Engagement, UCL Climate Action Unit)

Tuesday, 18th November

Systems Thinking & Systemic Design

Background When a challenge has multiple stakeholders and components, with complex interactions between them, it becomes difficult to plot a linear path towards a defined outcome. These kinds of challenges have been termed ‘cloud’ or ‘wicked’ problems: challenges so interdependent that there are no clear right or wrong solutions.
