CLES010 HM - Climate Wayfinding

Credit(s): 1

Description: Climate Wayfinding is a deep learning program for people seeking clarity, courage, and community on their climate journeys. Through diverse modes of exploration, participants discern and enliven their unique contributions and develop key capacities for climate engagement. As the program’s creator, Dr. Katharine Wilkinson, writes, “We are each a node of possibility for climate healing.” During this course, we look inward - exploring our climate emotions, core motivations, guiding values, and skills and “superpowers.” Then, we look outward - exploring climate solutions, accelerators for change, and our unique contexts and communities. Finally, we look forward - exploring our visions of the future and creating a personalized “climate compass” and plan. This program is designed for current undergraduate or graduate student holding questions about their place in climate engagement and/or seeking deeper contribution. The course is especially suited to those looking to unpack their deeper motivations and gain focus and clarity in an affirming community. All majors and backgrounds are welcome. (Note: This program is not designed for those who are looking primarily for climate science, career counseling, or technical content.)

Grading Type: Pass/No Pass
