Meet & Make: An interactive gender x climate workshop by IDEO.org

​Most Climate Week events talk about change. This event gives us all a chance to build it. Join us to close out SF Climate Week with creativity, community, and hope.

We’ll kick off with a series of fast-paced lightning talks from experts, implementers and funders in the climate space, including from Project Drawdown, Vibrant Data Labs and Kiva — highlighting data and real-world insights on how women-led climate initiatives are consistently underfunded. These quick, compelling shares will set the stage for collective action.

From there, the room becomes a workshop. You’ll join a small table group together with the panelists and designers from IDEO.org to use the tools of design futuring to create an object of the future: a tangible artifact that represents the regenerative, gender-just world we’re working toward.

Expect conversation, collaboration, and a creative close to SF Climate Week where you’ll have the opportunity to synthesize everything you’ve learned and questioned during the week. Refreshments and light appetizers by women-owned businesses will be served!

​Speakers include:

Elizabeth Bagley, Ph.D., Managing Director of Project Drawdown, a nonprofit dedicated to identifying and promoting the most impactful climate solutions.

​Maggie Cutts, VP for Partnerships at Vibrant Data Labs, a mission-driven data science firm dedicated to maximizing collective impact in the complex field of climate capital.
