On March 12, 2024, UBC Okanagan students, faculty and staff came together to share ideas on how to action climate (and justice) knowledge – on campus and in the Kelowna community.
GOAL
To inform, engage and inspire our campus community in taking collective climate solutions.
EVENT DETAILS
UBC Okanagan students, faculty and staff came together at the Third Teach-In on Climate and Justice for:
- Info-fair and networking opportunity for climate/justice research and action
- Presentations by the City of Kelowna and UBCO Sustainability Office
- Table discussions on actioning climate knowledge on campus and in the Kelowna community
THANK YOUS
The Third UBCO Teach-In on Climate & Justice would not have been made possible without the support of the UBC Okanagan Climate Action Plan Engagement (CAP-E) working group and the faculty, staff and student volunteers that helped to organize the event.
This event was part of the Worldwide Teach-In on Climate and Justice taking place in hundreds of locations around the world.
NEXT STEPS
Keep climate action moving:
- Take the UBCO Climate Action Pledge
- Complete the evaluation of the UBCO Climate & Justice Teach-In
- Sign up and keep in touch with CAP-E (Climate Action Plan 2030 Engagement working group)
CAP-E is a team of faculty, students and staff that meet regularly to identify engagement opportunities that support the advancement of the UBCO CAP 2030 reduction targets.
