As part of the Global Learning Festival, I am pleased to invite you to a new skills program developed by RESILIO. The HOPE Matters program is based on the research that suggests “Hope is a teachable skill”. This very timely 3 hour programme aims to equip individuals with the knowledge and skills to grow and maintain hope within themselves and their communities during these challenging times.

How do we, adult educators, scholars, activists, play, engage, inhabit ‘climate justice’ – its theory and practice? What roles can we play to mitigate and adapt to the dramatic, anticipated environmental changes? It’s a vast, complex landscape which requires collective insights, imagination, and action. Solving the climate crisis affects all aspects of society. Therefore, our own education as adult educators, scholars and activists is essential.
