Deloitte National Futures Day

What: Facilitating workshops and speaking to children about climate change are delicate topics. Deloitte wanted to share the importance of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Sustainability within their organisational practices with over 50 youngsters age 10-14 exploring their future options

With such important visitors at their offices, they wanted to make sure they did it right! To enable that we held a training for their staff on how to talk to kids about climate change, and helped them facilitate climate workshops on the causes and effects of climate change, so that kids would develop their understanding of climate issues, and come away feeling empowered to make a change.
