Retired Educational Psychologist and Tutor on the Bristol D.Ed.Psych course
I found Louise’s webinar excellent in many ways. It was informed by wide research in the area of climate change and rooted in the practice of educational psychology, seeing issues such as climate anxiety within the systemic resillience work which E.P.s engage in with schools, teachers, students and parent/carers....... As a grandmother and climate activist I welcome and would encourage such an approach which chimes closely with my thoughts for the future generation.
