What's empathy got to do with it?Empathy is a powerful skill that can be learned and development. What's it got to do with climate action?

Empowerment workshop: respectful debate & discussion through Active Bystander training
05/06/2025 | 14:00 - 16:00
Not sure what active bystander means?That's okay! There are three key words to keep in mind here: awareness, action, and safety. So someone being an active bystander notices a situation where someone might need help and chooses to take action in a safe and effective way. This could mean stepping in to stop harmful behaviour, offering support to someone in distress, or seeking help from others.
