How do you navigate the complex, overwhelming issue of climate change? Do you feel a tension between your love of healthcare and concern for its environmental impact — and where can you explore that without judgment?

This half-day workshop offers a clear, evidence-based overview of climate science, tailored for healthcare professionals and delivered by people who understand your world. Using the globally recognised Climate Fresk methodology — experienced by more than two million people worldwide — small groups work together with 42 cards to build a collaborative collage, piecing together the drivers and mechanisms of climate change. It's a visual, hands-on process that engages everyone in the learning and creates an immersive, memorable experience — and a shared foundation for a more sustainable future for your practice.

Course objectives

This course will:

  • Explain the core mechanisms driving climate change, grounded in established scientific consensus.

  • Describe the interconnected nature of climate causes and impacts, mapped through the 42-card Climate Fresk collage you build together.

  • Relate these principles to the realities of healthcare practice and your own organisation's context.

  • Reflect openly on any tension between your commitment to animal care and concern for environmental impact, in a safe, non-judgmental space.

  • Identify practical, achievable actions to reduce environmental impact — as a team and as a profession.
