Overview
Unit 3 provides an opportunity for us to engage as a community in ongoing and emergent climate action leadership issues and concerns. This seminar and that of Unit 4 will be shaped around topics of interest to you. In pairs, you will be asked to host a discussion about a topic relevant to your own interests in the climate action space. Each pair will have a 45 minute slot in either Unit 3 or Unit 4 to host this discussion. You will be responsible for identifying 1-2 readings/resources for us all to read in advance of the seminar, and for leading the discussion on this topic. You are free to invite a guest speaker if you wish. There is NO right way to structure and facilitate the discussion, however you are encouraged to consider how to make it engaging and generative. Please sign up your pair for time slots here. This learning activity is part of your Contribution mark.

See the Assignment 2 description
As with unit 1 and 2, although we are not asking you to blog for every unit of this course, you may want to blog about your process of developing a theory of change, or the theory of change you develop. Sharing your thinking about these ideas and about your own development as a climate action leader can extend your sphere of influence and offer opportunities to support others’ development. Again, this is an invitation not an expectation.
