Join us for the Peoples’ Climate Week launch (9/18) and the following teach-in (09/19) at The New School (NYC). People’s Climate Week is a counter-space to mainstream NYC Climate Week events where movements advance a Peoples’ Agenda to interrupt and disrupt the promotion of false solutions to climate change and other crises, such as often advanced by corporate, governmental and big NGO actors in NYC Climate Week fora, the UN Ambitions Summit and UN Conferences of Parties.

Join us on Monday (9/18) for a Plenary & Movement Social as the launch of Peoples’ Climate Week.
