Feedback on the Fresk: 

“We loved the format of the Climate Fresk session as it didn’t leave us hanging at the ‘what’s happening for our planet’ stage, but helped us identify actions that would really make a difference,” Teresa Solomon, kindergarten teacher and Fresk participant.

“Thank you so much for today’s workshop. I know the participants really valued the insights they drew from your thoughtful, and perfectly pitched, facilitation. And they had fun too – win:win!" - Sue Brown
