SUMMARY:Understanding Climate Change: From Basics to Action (in-person; 9.00 am-3:30 pm GMT)
DESCRIPTION:Environmental Parrot is excited to host “Understanding Climate Change: From Basics to Action”\, a one-day educational event on March 6\, 2025\, in Monrovia\, Liberia. This in-person event is designed to provide foundational knowledge about climate change while inspiring actionable solutions. It aims to empower individuals\, communities\, and organizations to take meaningful steps toward achieving UN SDG Goal 13: Climate Action.

Participants will engage in interactive sessions\, hands-on workshops\, and open-floor discussions to explore practical climate solutions\, such as reducing carbon footprints\, adopting sustainable agriculture\, and embracing renewable energy. By addressing these challenges within the context of Liberia—a nation particularly vulnerable to climate impacts—the event underscores the importance of local and community-led action. The day will include inspirational talks\, expert-led discussions\, and youth-focused activities designed to empower the next generation of climate leaders. Attendees will also have opportunities to network with peers\, experts\, and organizations working in the climate and environmental fields. By the end of the event\, participants will have a clear understanding of climate change basics\, actionable strategies for resilience and mitigation\, and the inspiration to implement sustainable practices in their communities.
