Friends (Quakers) in the Asia West Pacific will deliver one workshop on Disaster Resilience in a Warming Climate and will be with Paula Paanamen who has worked internationally and with communities after the Burnt Summer of bushfires 2019-20 in Australia, and more recently during the unprecedented Australian floods. What skills and approaches are need for Friends to help build and be part of community resilience?
As the climate heats up we are experiencing more extreme and unpredictable weather events. Paula Paananen is finding ways to support communities and individuals to prepare, recover and to build resilience from these events. Join us to learn how the tools of permaculture and Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) tools are being used to help people reconnect with each other to rebuild stronger communities that are better placed to adapt to a changing climate
