CAFES member Group of 78 is doing fantastic organizing work! An amazing conference for us right here in Ottawa. Join up on September 27th and 28th for their exciting in-person Citizens Confront Climate Crisis conference. Featuring reknown keynote speaker Tzeporah Berman, this conference focuses on citizen-involvement and re-activation of hope. Come out and learn from expert speakers to strategize how civil society can effectively drive policy change and action in government. The Group of 78 have a great lineup as well as many opportunities to connect and collaborate with other organizations that are at the forefront of citizen-led climate action. This conference is the tonic we need!
The program focuses on citizen movements in Canada and other countries including the Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty and EcoJustice litigation brought forward by youth. The program will also bring together experts from David Suzuki, Environmental Defence, Physicians for the Environment, Nature Canada, Below 2 Degrees, Grandmothers, and Local Community Associations to talk about how we can collaborate and amplify our work to save the planet for us all.
