A multicoloured poster saying: King's Chaplaincy invites you to Faith for Climate Justice Workshops. Do you wonder what climate justice means? Does your concept of faith include a commitment to heal the planet and our own hearts? Then this workshop by Faith for the Climate is for you! No previous expertise in campaigning on climate and nature is necessary – come with an open heart to learn and act together. The workshop will explore how we can draw on the strengths of relationships across faith traditions as we learn more about each other and how to work together. Facilitated by Dr Shanon Shah, Director of Faith for the Climate, and a Visiting Research Fellow at the Department of Theology and Religious Studies, King’s College London. Choose from any of these options: Waterloo Campus, twentieth of May from 12pm to 4pm. This session is primarily aimed at students. Strand Campus, eighteenth of June from 12pm to 4pm. This session is primarily aimed at staff. Guy’s Campus, twenty fourth of July from 12pm to 4pm. This session is open to all King’s staff and students.
