Summer Institute for k-12 Teachers
June 24 - 26, 2024
Migration is a core part of the human experience and one of our oldest tools to respond to environmental changes. But current news about both climate change and migration can be panic-inducing. This summer institute for k-12 teachers explores the intersection of climate and migration with realism rather than hysteria. We’ll explore past examples of climate-related migration, the nuanced relationship between climate and migration in the present, migration as depicted in the arts, and possible futures.
This institute is open to k-12 teachers across disciplines.
This FREE program will take place in person. Lunch will be provided. Space is limited to 24 people on a first-come, first-served basis.
Professional development credit is available upon request during the registration process. Teachers who attend for credit will be expected to submit a lesson plan featuring material used in the program.
