🌿🌊 SustainForward: Navigating the Future Summer Series - Lunch and Lectures with Dr. Claire Nelson- DAY 3 🌿🌊 From June 5th, World Environment Day, to June 8th, World Oceans Day, we embarked on an inspiring journey with Dr. Claire Nelson, exploring sustainability and our collective future. 🌍✨ Day 3 Recap (June 7th): We explored the concept of becoming change makers, the future of the legal profession, and the importance of a shared vision for global justice and sustainability. Dr. Nelson introduced the idea of a Center for Law and Society, which would focus on addressing the legal aspects of sustainable development. This center would aim to equip legal professionals with the knowledge and tools necessary to advocate for environmental justice and policy changes. We discussed plans for a workshop designed to cultivate change, providing participants with practical skills and strategies to drive sustainable initiatives in their respective fields. Dr. Nelson's concept of "movementology" and her principles for being a changemaker provided deep insights into creating sustained forward movements. She shared inspiring examples of successful movements and the pivotal role of individuals in driving systemic change. We also highlighted the transition of power structures and the need for individuals to see themselves as co-creators of a sustainable future. The session emphasized the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration and the role of legal frameworks in supporting sustainable practices. 🔄🌟 Watch the Day 3 Session: https://lnkd.in/eK7RDTXF Passcode: 8SFd^W*P Join us as we continue the conversation and build on these insights throughout the summer!
