Educators Climate Crisis Workshop

ACAN!

On July 29th ACAN is hosting a two-hour intensive workshop for Educators in Schools of Architecture.

We recognise the quality of climate and ecology-related teaching already present in many schools of architecture. Through this UK wide inter-institutional workshop we are seeking to support a mass cross-pollination of the ambitious ideas and approaches that are already underway. Climate Curriculum CampaignACAN Education is campaigning to increase climate literacy in course programmes starting autumn 2020 through the Climate Curriculum Campaign. This event is a key part of the campaign, seeking to connect schools and provide support for educators looking to bring more climate teaching into their course programmes.

The profession is not responding quickly enough to the climate emergency. As a network of individuals, ACAN directs personal expertise and singular efforts towards a common goal - systemic change in the profession and the construction industry at large. ACAN operates without commercial affiliations or support, allowing the network to act at pace and with autonomy. Through collective action, ACAN is working to demand, instigate and propagate the transformation of the construction industry. ACAN is driven by three aims:1. Rapid decarbonisation 2. Ecological regeneration3. Cultural transformationMore about ACAN’s activities and aims be seen <a href="https://www.architectscan.org/home" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>
