Empowering Families to Address the Climate Crisis – A Personal Journey
As a mother, I once found myself struggling to address the daunting topic of the climate crisis with my own children. Uncertain of where to begin, I embarked on a journey of research, delving into psychological books on conversations about trauma, war, and crises. Drawing inspiration from these resources, I adapted valuable tools and techniques to navigate discussions about the climate crisis with children. Through participating in talks, workshops, and seminars led by psychologists, I gathered a wealth of information and insights. Now I aim to share this information with fellow parents in the entertaining, encouraging, and empowering ebook “Climate Communication with Children – A Handbook for Climate-Minded Parents and Caregivers”.
