In the Climate Network’s Climate Action Survey, more than 80% of young people revealed that they were concerned about climate change, and 75% believe it will negatively impact their future.   Museums can play an important role in supporting children and young people to learn more about the Climate and Ecological Emergency, to discuss and debate the issues surrounding it, and to get involved with social action to achieve long-term change.   In this webinar, delegates will:    understand the importance of this work think about how to use their collections and initiate local partnerships to take their own work forward gain inspiration from case studies to inform their work.   About the trainer   This training webinar will be led by Kathy Moore, Deputy Chair and Environmental Responsibility Champion at GEM and Director of Climate Museum UK. Kathy recently left SHARE Museums East after 10 years to work freelance. Always passionate about environmental issues, she ran an annual, museum-led A Level conference on biodiversity for over 10 years, using natural history collections and involving many external partners. Kathy has delivered Carbon Literacy courses to a variety of museums over the last two years and is now working with Historic England to roll out their Carbon Literacy offer.    She will be joined by Louise Bragan, Senior Officer: Programming and Learning at Wakefield Museums and Castles, Jodie Henshaw, Museum Curator at Mansfield Museum and and Izzy McLeod, a Amgueddfa Cymru Producer and climate communicator.   Take a look at the full schedule.     Who should attend?   This training is aimed at staff who work in museums, art galleries and heritage sites who are interested in supporting children and young people to respond to the Climate and Ecological Emergency within their organisation.
