An Education Community Webinar x Plants and Climate Change Education (PLACCE) Conversation
What do you know about your audiences’ perspectives on climate change? How could this information help you make decisions about climate change education approaches? Join us to learn how the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication is using social science research to better understand public perspectives on climate change across a range of contexts. Explore and try out tools for understanding your own and others’ views, learn about research findings with potential relevance to public gardens, and hear case examples of how educators can bring this research to practice. The presentation will be followed by an opportunity for questions.
Guest Presenter: Joshua Low, Partnerships Director at the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication
Education & Science Professional Development Track supported by: Naples Botanical Garden
This session is presented as a collaboration between the Association’s Education Community and Plants and Climate Change Education (PLACCE). PLACCE, a partnership between the U.S. Botanic Garden and the American Public Gardens Association, is a peer learning group for public garden education professionals dedicated to learning together; creating and testing plant-centered climate change education models; and sharing new understandings, resources, and best practices across the public gardens community. This webinar is part of the PLACCE Conversations series. PLACCE Conversations are online professional development opportunities open to education professionals from botanic gardens and arboreta interested in plant-centered climate change education.
