Topic: Transform Climate Distress to Collective Action: Climate Reliance Course at UC
Offered by: Gail Wright
In keeping with last month’s teaching and conversation with Kaira Jewel Lingo on finding “what is ours to do”, this month we will learn about a UC Climate Resilience course putting those key concepts into action across all 10 UC campuses.
This UC system wide course aims to transform climate distress to collective action. Using an emergent pedagogy approach, UC professors and meditation teachers co-lead the course. Together, they guide meditation practices, experiential exercises, and small group discussions, and then support the development of group climate action projects. Students develop inner resilience skills, shift perspective toward an interconnected ecological worldview, and engage in collaborative climate action. Read more in a recent UC news article.
