Political Pod – SHAPING TOMORROW Playbook Step 3: Climate Science in Action
Presented by Diana Collett and Joanna Wells
SHAPING TOMORROW sessions supporting Playbook Circles: Recordings of these Playbook sessions are posted in the relevant Playbook Circle Facilitation Guide for each Step. We encourage Circles to begin each Step by watching the recording and choosing where they want to focus their discussions.
Our third Playbook meeting focuses on how climate aware coaches can bring Climate Science into their work with politicians and policy makers. Diana Collett will explore practical possibilities with Joanna Wells, a councillor in her local Mitcham Council and a Greens Candidate in the recent Australian Federal Election.
In this session we focus on Step 3, part D Becoming Learning Guides for Politicians.
We will discuss how coaches can act as Learning Guides to strategically incorporate climate science to promote understanding and longer-term action for sustainability and adaptation. Questions include:
• What differentiates Climate Aware Coaching from traditional coaching?
• Why is it important to expand the client’s landscape around climate issues?
In breakout pairs we will explore the elements of becoming Learning Guides most relevant in your practice
