At the 2024 Climate & Sustainability Leadership Summit, our very own Leah Austin, EdD, President and CEO, will address this pressing issue in her session titled "Climate Change and Its Impact on Black Childhood." This session is not just an exploration of the problem; it is a strategic call to action that underscores the imperative of integrating environmental justice with racial equity. Dr. Austin will bring the unique perspective of Black children and families to this important discussion and emphasize the importance of Black children being centered in climate change solutions. We are excited and grateful to add value and voice to this issue on behalf of Black children in our Nation. #NBCDI #ClimateIssues #ClimateAndSustainability
This will be so insightful.
