Ep. 101 Climate For Change with Dr. Kim Slater [Video]

Kim Slater hails from Guelph, Ontario, but has resided in the Sea to Sky region for the past decade. In that time, she has worn many hats, working primarily in the non-profit and public sectors in executive director, program manager, and grant writing roles. She also volunteers for the Red Cross and Whistler Community Foundation alongside other community champions in the service of sustainability, community resilience and social change. Her belief in the transformative power of dialogue has evolved over the years through extensive community development and facilitation work in both rural and urban settings. Having completed her PhD, her research explores how the learning we do together and in community engaged spaces contributes to systems-change and sustainability transitions. At the heart of Kim’s work is the creation of dynamic and user-friendly evaluation approaches that supports such learning.In today’s episode, Dr. Slater shares her newest event hosted in collaboration with Hollyhock -Climate for Change 2022 which begins this June 26 – 30, 2022. This is an event for the powerhouses that are leading the Climate movement and it will (re)connect a diverse group of Indigenous, grassroots, and sectoral leaders from across Canada who are committed to going beyond incremental climate action and taking the bold steps needed to bring about a safe and just climate future. In addition, Kim shares ways to deal with EcoAnxiety, what’s need to reach the tipping point to catalyze the change we need to see, how quickly things can move when actions starts happening, what to know about privilege and how to create space for other voices.High impact actions:Eat a Plant-strong dietEat more local food Be thoughtful about what you’re putting into your bodyThink about how you’re getting aroundReduce the amount of consumption Spend your time as producers of ideas and generosity over consuming Find Kim Slater at:Climate For Change 2022 – https://bit.ly/C4CHH22Toronto University: https://bit.ly/kimslaterInstagram: @HollyHockLifeLinkedIn: @KimSlater Join the Get Off Your F.A.A.T.
