Event information
Climate change is part of a complex system often accompanied by mis- and false information. This workshop aims to deepen the understanding of the climate crisis and its interconnections. We delve into the origins of anthropogenic climate change, its link to colonialism, and present reliable, scientifically based facts. Additionally, we discuss the role of purported solutions exacerbating the crisis and explore the feasibility of utopian ideals.
Together, we rise above feelings of powerlessness and craft a zine that creatively consolidates your ideas and action impulses for climate justice. Zines have a rich history as tools for networking, organization, and empowerment. You will learn to harness this tool and utilize it to keep yourselves motivated even after the workshop.
