Join Londoners for this “watch party”, as we participate in an online gathering of people who are active in furthering the climate transition in communities across Canada.
Experience a diverse array of plenary panels, masterclasses, and workshops that converge courageous leadership and inclusive climate action for a holistic learning journey.
Our hope is that you will be exposed to new ideas and be motivated by the work of peers and partners in the climate movement so that you leave feeling equipped with actionable tools and insights to continue your work building more resilient, equitable, and sustainable futures.
Each session will facilitate deep conversation, skill-building, and creative exploration, at the same time as providing specific examples and success stories from on-the-ground practitioners, all centered around the theme of "Leading Courageously."
