As mentioned before, after each session we will be convening as regional groups in separate “rooms” to discuss and think strategically about the issues presented in the webinars. The results of the breakout sessions will be collated and used to develop a global strategic plan to address the impact of climate change on children.

Please distribute the attached as widely as possible. If you can, copy us (elgoldhagen@gmail.com<mailto:elgoldhagen@gmail.com>) when you disseminate this information so that we can send monthly announcements of the topics that will be presented that month.
