CCPI is an opportunity to educate, empower and activate youth in the realm of
climate policy.
March 15th – 17th
The Climate Initiative is excited to present the Collegiate Climate Policy Institute. CCPI will take place from March 15th to the 17th and is a three-day virtual intensive training that will provide young climate advocates with the knowledge and skills needed to be an effective climate advocate in Congress as well as in their own communities! A selection of activities and workshops will be offered to young leaders to give them a taste of what advocacy is like at the federal level and teach them the ways that policy and advocacy work together to provide solutions for our communities. Some of the proposed workshops include:
Climate Advocacy Across the Political Spectrum | A panel where three people from across the political spectrum have a conversation about cooperation and what climate change |
How to Talk to Legislators About Climate Change | Students will pick a specific policy that they support relative to climate change to discuss with the Congressional office. |
And so much more!
