This session will develop your confidence to support your learners navigate the increasing anxiety around the climate and ecological crisis, by building a sense of agency and positive action for Climate Justice. WOSDEC will be joined for this session by our partners Christian Aid Scotland and SCIAF.
During the session we'll explore:
Climate and eco-anxiety: what they are and how they manifest, both for young people and for adults
Practical methodologies and resources to support you to discuss the issues with learners, building their sense of agency as the key strategy for tackling anxiety
Our courses are highly interactive, both to model the participatory global citizenship approach, and also so we can introduce activities and methodologies for use in the classroom. This course will make use of breakout rooms and simple digital participation tools (all necessary instructions will be given). It can be hard to participate fully on a phone or tablet, so we highly recommend you join the course on a desktop or laptop computer, with your microphone and video enabled.
If you have particular access needs, please contact diana@wosdec.org.uk so we can work together to create as positive an experience for you as we can.
We have designed this course to be engaging, relevant and thought-provoking. Please join the course in a reasonably quiet place if possible, and do what you can to bring your full participation and focus to the session.
