Event description
Warm Invitation to a Climate Café in Darwin
Larrakia Country – Thursday 25th September, 5:30–7:00pm ACST
You are warmly invited to join us for a Climate Café on Larrakia Country. A Climate Café is an open, informal gathering where people come together to share and reflect on their emotional responses to climate change. It’s not about debate or problem-solving, but about listening, being heard, and holding space for the wide range of feelings that arise as we face environmental and biodiversity challenges here in Darwin and beyond.

Climate Cafés are a gentle way of building resilience, community, and mutual care as we live through this time of change. We’d love for you to join us and add your voice to this circle.
Tickets
We want everybody to be able to access the support they need, so registration for these special Climate Cafes is free.
Psychology for a Safe Climate is a majority volunteer organisation with no ongoing operational funding. Please consider donating if you're able to, at the same time that you register. Donations of any amount are appreciated, and donations over $2 are tax deductible within Australia. It's through donations from people like you that we are able to continue this work.
Ticket Returns/Refunds
Capacity on Climate Cafes is only 15 people, so they are often fully booked. For this reason, registrants are able to return their own tickets up until 24 hours prior to the cafe - please consider doing this if you can't attend as it frees up your place for someone else who may need the support, to attend.
