Save the Date info

Join the University of Washington’s EarthLab, the Environment and Well-Being Lab and the OECD WISE Centre in a half-day public workshop on the intersection of climate change and mental health. The event will uncover the complex pathways linking climate change to worsening mental health outcomes, including new forms of distress. It will also showcase the restorative and protective aspects of nature, and the ways in which climate action can be leveraged to promote positive mental health outcomes. Throughout, voices from community organisations working at the forefront of climate change mitigation efforts will be showcased. The event concludes with a policy discussion to consider the ways in which government at all levels – local, state and national – can identify success factors to promote the design and implementation of cross-sectoral policies.

Doors will open at 8:45 AM for registration. A light breakfast will be provided.
