What is the Climate Teach-In?

A 鈥渢each-in鈥 is an informal, educational event that discusses a specific issue or cause, organized to raise awareness or prompt action on social, political, or environmental topics. Unlike traditional lectures, teach-ins are interactive and community-oriented, encouraging open discussion and participation from attendees.
