  • Main organizer: Safer Climate

  • Facilitator: Eugenia Castellazzi (University of Helsinki), Juni Sinkkonen (Tunne ry, psychologist), Philip Heron (Think Like a Scientist, researcher, University of Toronto), Raisa Foster (Artist)

Effects of climate change, biodiversity loss and poor air quality are an increasing cause of mortality and decrease in wellbeing globally. They also affect our mental health and psychosocial wellbeing negatively. We need natural scientists, social scientists, artists and civil society to work together to create new solutions to these challenges and to help us surviving the grim changes and loss that we are inevitably facing. In this workshop, we use scientific and artistic approaches and acknowledge the power of experiencing things together.
