Now Available! Civic Engagement and Climate Change Mitigation: Exploring Opportunities at the Intersection of Research, Community Participation, and National Service
AmeriCorps Research and Evaluation released a research webinar that focused on civic engagement, climate change mitigation, and actionable community-level solutions. Dana Fisher, Ph.D., professor of sociology at the University of Maryland, set the tone by framing the intersection of civic engagement and climate change. Speakers include research grantees from the University of Puerto Rico at Humacao, University of Houston, Texas Southern University, and the University of Nevada at Reno as well as reflections from Laura Hanson Schlachter, Ph.D., an environmental sociologist, and former AmeriCorps member, Shane Dermanjian. They discussed the importance of local communities and community members becoming active participants and collectively acknowledging their role in the fight against the global climate crisis.
