This year’s theme — Climate Civics — perfectly encapsulates the mission to inform, inspire and uplift communities as we discuss the pressing challenges of climate change. With over 1,000 organizers and 50 climate-based organizations coming together, this summit represents a vital opportunity for dialogue and collaboration at the intersection of civic engagement, social justice and climate action.
