Mya-Rose Craig: In Conversation

4th July @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Join us for an inspiring conversation with Dr Mya-Rose Craig, a remarkable environmentalist whose journey began as a young birdwatcher and led to the founding of Black2Nature – a movement championing ethnic diversity in nature conservation and the environment. Mya-Rose will share how focus, motivation, and commitment can turn passion into meaningful action. Don’t miss this chance for an optimistic look at how we can better engage young people, particularly, in care for nature.

Reflecting the University of Chester’s commitment to dialogue and partnership with young people to address social and environmental issues, Mya-Rose will be in conversation with Dr Rebecca Collins. Rebecca is the Director of the University’s Sustainability and Environment Research and Knowledge Exchange Institute (SERKEI), which brings together over 150 researchers with expertise relevant to sustainability and the future of our environments.  She also leads the university’s work to embed learning for sustainability across undergraduate curricula.  She is particularly passionate about how we can best engage young people in how to care for nature, in the face of so much anxiety about the future.
