JanineHarehills Action Team are hosting a Climate Action Assembly at The Compton Centre.
The aim of the event is to look at climate action and care of the environment from the perspective of a global majority and under resourced communities, such as Harehills.
It’s about sharing accessible information, listening to where people’s starting point is, making pledges and looking at what actions we can take as a community, as well as celebrating the amazing projects and actions already taking place.
The event, which takes place on Friday, 17 May, from 10.30am-2.30pm, involves:
- A panel of speakers
- Stalls and activities
- An eco fashion show
- Spoken word/ poetry from The Co op academy and local people
- Planting a community herb garden
- A climate Action Pledge tree
- And more.
An Action Team spokesperson said: “We’d love you to take part if there is something you’d like to do, from having a stall to running an activity or selecting someone to be part of the panel and Q&A.
“We are particularly focussing on providing a platform for global majority voices and perspectives at this event.”
