EOAS Climate Dialogue - April 1, 2020

The public health emergency has scattered the UBC Climate Emergency Community Engagement process. The organizing team has created a set of remote engagement opportunities that allows climate emergency conversations to be started in the department. Caring for the health and wellbeing of the community is the first priority. These opportunities are a chance to gather as a community in an uncertain time and discuss a critical topic.

Next week's online dialogue is on for April 1st, 11am - 1pm.
