An afternoon with Emily Ragus: Idealism and Perseverence 16 May 2024 14:30 - 16:30

Share
Are you worried about the climate crisis and other global crises? And do you sometimes struggle to stay hopeful? Join us for this afternoon of inspiration, and get encouraged!

Sometimes it is hard to not become overwhelmed with the climate crisis, or any other global crisis - there's enough of them. That's why the IVM and NEWConnective have organised a gathering to think about how to remain hopeful and resilient during these mind-boggling times.  

Emily Ragus, our speaker, will share her experience in disaster areas, and her PhD work on humanitarian work and environmental disasters. With her art-based research approach, she will guide us through her strategies of perseverance and hope. After Emily's presentation, we will engage in conversation with each other; where do we find hope and courage? How can we stay idealists? 

 

The program of the afternoon will be as follows: 

14:30-14:40: Introduction by NEWConnective and IVM 

14:40-15:15: Speaker: Emily Ragus 

15:15-16:00: Conversation in smaller groups 

16:00-16:30: Plenary discussion about group conversations 

16:30: End program 

From 16:30: Drinks with GeoVUsie in the Houtzagerij (WN-M138). 

 

Let's turn anxiety into action and cultivate hope for a brighter, sustainable future together. Don't miss out; sign up now!
