You are invited to attend a free workshop for Youth Workers and Arts Practitioners wanting to develop ways of working with the arts and groups of young people on climate issues. This workshop will launch a new Arts Educational toolbox devised from the Erasmus+ project: Codename Seedling.

As well as workshopping some of the activities from the toolbox, attendees will receive a digital copy of the toolbox, so they can run these activities with their groups of young people. There will be the opportunity to take part in follow-up feedback on the activities
