The Bahá’í-inspired Interfaith Climate Group hosts a series of writing and conversation workshops to facilitate participation in the discourses of society on the social and environmental challenges of our time. Participants:
*Reflect on spiritual teachings from the world’s religions
*Consider unity of thought and possible actions for the United Nations’ Global Goals
*Learn about a faith-based community-wide climate conversation to action program.
The Interfaith Devotional supports a pilot Florida Climate “Conversation to Action” program with the University of Florida Extension and We, the World.
