Connecting Early Childhood Development to Climate Change

Climate change is already affecting the environments where children live, grow, play, and learn. If we want to ensure that our children can thrive in a changing climate—particularly those in communities facing structural inequalities—it is critical that we bring them into the conversation.

In this webinar, hosted in partnership with the FrameWorks Institute, our panelists discussed findings from our new research on evidence-based strategies for building understanding and driving action to support children and their caregivers in a warming world. Read the new research here.

The conversation was moderated by Nat Kendall-Taylor, CEO of the FrameWorks Institute, and included Lindsey Burghardt, Chief Science Officer at the Center on the Developing Child; Margot Brown, Senior Vice President of Justice & Equity at the Environmental Defense Fund; and Jaclyn Roessel, President and CEO of Grownup Navajo.
