Attend The Behavior, Energy & Climate Change's (BECC) Webinar: Climate Justice Lessons from Africa on Tuesday, June 27, 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM ET
What can we learn about changing behavior from energy saving efforts and grassroots initiatives around the world? Join us for a free webinar to hear local leaders from across Sub-Saharan Africa as they share their climate action stories and experiences.
Whether it's energy retrofits, anti-pollution programs and sustainability efforts, or climate activism and youth education, our distinguished panelists will share lessons and information that can be applied anywhere.
Attendees will hear from six participants in the Historically Black College or University (HBCU) Green Fund's Sustainable Future for Africa and the Diaspora network. The HBCU Green Fund encourages institutions that benefited from slavery to invest in efficiency upgrades for HBCU buildings, and the diaspora network extends this work beyond American borders. The session will include a Q&A discussion following the presentations.
All webinar registrants will receive a link to the recording a few business days after the live session.
