New resource uploaded for Module 2 (Essential reading!)

Kia ora koutou,

Thanks to the kind recommendation of our colleague Yamide Dagnet, we have uploaded an additional resource for Module 2:Racism and Climate (In)Justice How Racism and Colonialism shape the Climate Crisis and Climate Action.

We have mentioned throughout the lead up to the workshops that there is no required reading as such. However, if there is one resource that you do take the time to access, I would very highly recommend it be this paper.

It covers a number of issues that we have started to discuss in the programme so far, with some excellent depth and nuance we have not been able to delve into given the limited time we have together.

It also has some excellent recommendations which may be useful to read after Module 2, and in preparation for Module 3 where we will start to get to the action end of the programme.

It is a long article, so for those shorter on time, I would recommend reading pages 1-19 for Module 2, and then the following pages for Modules 3 & 4.

In any case, if there’s one resource out of all that I would encourage, this would be it, and again my deep appreciation to our colleague Yamide who recommended this in Stream B and who has kindly followed up with the authors for their blessing to share this resource with us all.

Ngā mihi nui,
