What is the Moving Mountains #climateconfluence ?
Moving Mountains is a climate confluence (a jamboree, a festival, a Chautauqua, an unconference, an outburst of innovations, a barn raising...) where doers, allies and leaders from across Alberta meet and intersect as they learn, and develop the tools and momentum to build their own climate solutions. Just as the just as Mohkinstis is the vital confluence of the Elbow and Bow rivers, our one day #Confluence Strives to be a forum that provides ample time to build relationships, learn new concepts, share experiences so that each of us will leave feeling encouraged to keep building for our collective future.
Moving Mountains' sessions and activities are a mixing place of ideas, learning, collaboration and community relationships built for you to 'choose your own adventure'. There are 3 blocks of programming to participate in from over the course of the day. You can choose just one block or all of them. They are: peer to peer workshops, self guided creative activites, and dynmaic networking and feedback Blocks. You are encouraged to chill in the Popcroon Lounge, refuel and create in the Kitchen nook or connect one to one anywhere in the inviting Hunter Hub Student Commons concourse. Our goal is that you leave with tools to take action, deeper connections and a better understanding of your palce in climate action.
