In 2023, I started Climate Shift to hold advising, mentoring, and workshop-based activities focused on using creative exploration to build habits of mind around positive climate action. Climate Shift work is bespoke and assumes no specialist knowledge of climate change. It can happen online, IRL, or in hybrid format.
In keeping with much of my work, Climate Shift works through a variety of arts-led practices. Below is an image from a Climate Shift session held in November 2023 for a group of Indian and European educators in Bangalore, India, using poetry and the Indian rangoli as motifs through which to explore a greater sense of individual climate agency. The session was co-created and led with Jigyasa Labroo, co-founder of the award-winning youth poetry charity, Slam Out Loud, and his since evolved into a distinct strand of work called Love and Fear in a Warming World that has been delivered at conferences, festivals, events, and elsewhere around the world.
Here is the dedicated Climate Shift website; anyone interested in this work – whether in schools, communities, or companies – should feel free to ping me there, or via the Contact page on this website.
