Climate Preparedness, and Systemic Change

[Free Webinar by WECAN International]

In light of the global COVID-19 pandemic, Women’s Earth and Climate Action Network is responding to requests for deeper community connection and engagement at this moment in time. Join WECAN International on Wednesday, March 25 for their webinar, “Caring for Our Communities: COVID-19 and our Health, Connections to Climate Preparedness, and Systemic Change". Although, the focus of this webinar is on a North American context, WECAN will be addressing global issues.

This conversation is situated within the context of an escalating climate crisis where the possibility of future pandemics becomes all too possible.
