Please join us on Wednesday, 10 February 2010, 5:45 - 8:00pm at the Scottish Storytelling Centre in Edinburgh for discussion, debate and light refreshments.
We are increasingly bombarded with a wealth of (factual) depressing news about the global challenges we face. But research is showing this often does not inspire positive action – instead, it overwhelms people, creating despair and guilt, which can then lead to denial, apathy and confusion.
How can real commitment to sustainability be fostered? What role can opinion leaders and those in public life play to bring about the shift in social values that are needed to meet the challenges we face?
Join us to discuss how to engage with values as a route towards a more sustainable future...
