  • 2/29 Hear Me Out: An Exercise in Empathy

    Hey Good Humans!!

    We are working on a project to encourage open dialogue about the environment in our campus community. As two of the delegates to the UN Climate Change Conference this past November through the UConn@COP Program, we are interested in bringing people with different backgrounds together to foster more productive and collaborative communication on campus. In order to achieve this, we are filming a video of a discussion between students and administrators who will engage in conversation on the topic of climate change. If any of y’all have seen the Middle Ground series from Jubilee (here’s an example!), we hope to facilitate empathetic dialogue like that.  

    If you’re interested in being a part of this experience and have an opinion about climate change (any opinion is welcome, as long as you feel comfortable sharing), please fill out the form here! Please email us if interested. We would love to have you :)
