Wellington Behavioural Science Network

Session for the day: An open discussion on climate change to bridge the gap using a blended behavioural science, design and systems approach.

We have some big messy climate and environmental challenges to face, together. A conversation is emerging about the amount of distance there is between policy formation, its intent and the impact it has on stakeholders on a systems basis. As a result, distance is increasing between different parts of our society creating reactance and loss of agency and perhaps an element of dehumanisation in the dialogue between “in” and “out” groups.

How can we use a blended behavioural design and systems mapping approach to increase empathy, agency and impact for improving the humanisation of dialogue?

This session starts at 4:00pm at Victoria University, Pipitea Campus (Room - RH327 on Level 3 at Rutherford house) till around 5:30/6pm.

Feel free to bring friends and colleagues but please update your RSVP. See you there fellow changer makers !
