Community engagement workshop
In the ENCN375 course (Sustainable engineering for a changing climate) on Monday 10th August (4-6pm) there is a workshop on community engagement being led by Tonkin + Taylor. Manea Sweeney is one of the facilitators and led the NZ Climate Change Risk Assessment community engagement team. There is space for additional people, if you or your students are interested, and it would be great for the students to have some different perspectives.
