We are extremely happy to announce Alexis Edghill Whalen as our first presenter! Alexis will introduce the ideas of citizen engagement, the imperfect activist and gentle advocacy. All of which can help anyone make a bigger impact or take those first steps. #BabyStepsAreStillSteps
Alexis will also share:
- value for energy investment and what activities have the most impact locally
- how we can develop our voice through advocacy and activism
- what to say when we want to engage our local government
- suggest an activity to start in the form of LOVE in a letter
Everyone is welcome! Please share this event with your friends. We look forward to seeing you!
