Description

Join in this interactive discussion to dig into The Essential Principles of Climate Literacy as they exist now and think about how they can be useful moving forward.

The authors of this document are calling for public feedback on an updated version of the principles.

A document will be developed from this discussion which participants can use to inform their own review.
