The Summit takes place all-day on Tuesday, February 25th, 2025 at the CUNY Graduate Center. The program is geared toward CUNY students who want to learn more about the NYC Climate Justice Hub and how to be involved in supporting a climate justice agenda in New York City and State that aligns with New York City Environmental Justice Alliance (NYC-EJA) and their coalitional partners fighting on the frontlines to build a more just city. The Summit will bring together CUNY students from across all campuses so that YOU can gather with like-minded peers to find ways YOU ALL can shape the future of climate justice organizing at CUNY and NYC! CUNY students who attend the full day will receive a certificate of completion.
