Workshop 3, May 28
This Climate Forum follow-on workshop invites participants to co-author a story of a collaborative future for Victoria's Climate Community
This workshop brings together the different worldviews, value systems, and practical understandings of how we should move together amidst the uncertainty of the climate crisis (polycrisis). We will co-author a story of how we would like to collaborate as a climate community in the coming years; building resilience to the climate crisis at a bioregional level from both economic and social perspectives. Participants will take away:
An expansion of the ideas put forward at the Climate Forum.
An experiential dive into navigating different value systems through storytelling.
An introduction into transformative scenario planning.
A sense of tangible action and direction for the climate community.
Facilitated by Dan McNeill and NatuR&D (RUSH Initiative)
