Centering the needs of young children and families in climate change strategies | The DO MORE Podcast | Episode 4
Description
Following their respective panel discussions at last year’s UN COP28 in Dubai, Warren Farrer sits down with Nicole Biondi to discuss how early childhood development intersects with climate change. And how placing the young child at the centre of climate change policies, plans and programs can build communities that are resilient and adaptable to the impacts of global warming.
Some of the topics they cover are:
· Misconceptions about climate change.
· Showcasing The Do More Foundation's unique parenting programme at COP28.
· The need to focus on young children when developing climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies.
· The SA Early Childhood Climate Action Alliance and The Do More Foundation's plan to honour indigenous climate resilience knowledge and practices
Nicole describes herself as a ‘professional dot connector’, a skill she brings to her work as the Foundation’s consultant on climate change, strategic communications, and advocacy. She is the Vice-Chairperson at Capita, a US-based global think tank that the DO MORE FOUNDATION is partnering with on climate change work.
