Please join us for a virtual panel discussion on the "Green New Deal In Action" on Wednesday, Feb. 24 from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m.
SBCAN Board Member Ana Rosa Rizo-Centino and SBCAN Advocacy and Events Director Nadia Lee Abushanab will be among the speakers.
The call for a Green New Deal has emerged in communities, classrooms, and protest sites across the country. In the Fall of 2019, UCSB held a public forum to start a conversation about how the Green New Deal can be used as an organizing framework to bring together environmental and social justice activism. Less than two years later, we are in a fundamentally different reality.
Youth, UCSB and community leaders will share concrete examples of the Green New Deal in practice.
The aim of this second public forum is to deepen our conversation about local efforts to create a Green New Deal, discuss its promise to help plan for a post-pandemic world, and examine how the current socio-political environment helps or hinders our collective ability to work towards transformational environmental and social justice.
