Polyphonic Voices: Translating Climate Change and Sustainable Development (Part 1)

This episode of Green Justice features discussions with KPU students as part of the Climate+ Challenge and Teaching and Learning Commons UN SDG Champions initiative. Students offered unique insights on discussing climate change and sustainable development in languages other than English. They reveal both similarities and differences in framing human relationship to nature in their home languages, demonstrating insights into sustainable practices and more relational, rather than hierarchical, ways of viewing nature. Discussion also ranges to linguistic differences in regard to humanizing nature and its presence as a refuge.

A huge thanks to all everyone who took the time to share their thoughts!
