SUMMARY:A workshop to explore the environmental impacts of war
DESCRIPTION:This workshop opens up a chance to explore and learn about the many environmental impacts of warfare and preparation for war. There will be a short presentation as well as practical activities and an opportunity for small group discussion. \nWe will face some challenging themes but in a supportive way which will be accessible to people of all ages. \nThrough a lens of “climate justice” we will look at how seemingly different problems AND the solutions are actually connected. \nNo minimum age restriction.
