Webinar: Cultivating Hope and Resilience in the Face of Climate Change: Future Visions, Pathways, and Agency Work
October 10, 2024
Webinar Description
In this presentation, Dr. Maria Ojala describes hope as a complex concept consisting of both emotional and cognitive aspects and as something that could be both constructive and less constructive. She will present different aspects of the hope concept: hope based on denial, existential hope, hope by facing the negative, hope as utopia, pathways to hope, and hope as agency work. Dr. Ojala will also focus on new research on climate change hope as agency work and the implications for climate-change education and communication.
This webinar is geared towards educators of all levels and environments. Educators who attend synchronously can receive certification for professional development time.
