The Cork Conference on Intergenerational Climate Justice returns this October 2023.
Schools and community groups are invited to join us to deepen your understanding of the climate crisis as a matter of intergenerational justice.
This year, the Fourth Conference will highlight the relationship between the climate crisis and the biodiversity crisis. Together, with guest speakers and through interactive exercises, we will explore the meaning and importance of thinking ecologically.
The 2023 Conference will once again take place online on Thursday, 26th October from 9am to 1pm.
