Oppenheimer Park Extreme Heat Pop-up
The UBC Climate Action Mobilizers’ (CAM) consulted with Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside (DTES) community to better understand how they are impacted by climate change at the Oppenheimer Park Extreme Heat Pop-up event. This event was developed in support of CLEAR and in partnership with Working Gear, UBC Sustainability Hub, and UBC Learning Exchange.
Bakerview: A Place for You – Workshops and Creative Lab
The Climate Action Mobilizers (CAM) team created two interactive, collaborative workshops for youth leaders at the Youth Space of South Surrey/White Rock with the objectives of surfacing the youth group and community’s needs; preparing youth leaders to consult with other community members such as seniors; and to facilitate the co-design of a community-wide creative lab. The culminating event for this workshop series was the implementation of an inclusive, co-designed creative lab that invited the Bakerview Park community to envision park improvements that will meet the needs of diverse park users.
