Climate Resilience and
Wellbeing in Education
Dr Louise
Edgington
Parenting in a time of climate and ecological crisis requires a different outlook to parenting practices of our own childhoods. If you have a child who is climate aware and is experiencing climate distress, it can be hard to know how to respond.
Consultation can help you detangle your own worries from those of your child, helping you show up and parent in a grounded and nurturing way.

Parent workshop - the climate and young people
1 hr 30 mins
​
Understand some of the psychological responses to the climate and ecological crisis and how these experiences may be different for young people.
We consider what parents can do to help and support their children, creating
relational and practical safety, a culture of emotional expression, and opportunities to develop skills that will make children resilient in an uncertain world.

Thank you for your thought provoking keynote last Monday. I found your talk really brought self-compassion to the fore and I'd really love to follow your work more.
