臺美氣候變遷教育雙邊工作坊
  • 發布單位:生物多樣性研究中心

(英文說明在下方 English description is provided below)

氣候變遷為當今地球面臨的最複雜且最重大的長期威脅。全球暖化重大的影響不再是對未來遙遠的議題,而是現在以極端天氣事件與其他自然災害的形式出現,並對世界各地的社區和經濟造成了相關衝擊。人們不需從每天的新聞,就可以看到氣候變遷對生命造成威脅與代價高昂的後果--從最近的颱風/颶風的破壞和強度、其他天氣事件、肆虐的野火、沿海洪水、到海平面上升。例如臺灣與美國西部在2021年就面臨嚴重的旱象。其他影響不明顯,但同樣危險--海洋酸化、生物多樣性喪失、到對糧食生產的威脅等等。氣候變化的成因與影響已超越國界,因此需要國際共同努力以產生氣候解決方案。

 

國立臺灣大學是教育部氣候變遷教學計劃的營運單位,本校與全球環境教育夥伴(GEEP)合作,舉辦首場臺灣與美國雙邊氣候教育工作坊。本工作坊聚焦於高等教育領域,建立雙方氣候教育者的相互了解,提升教學能力,並開創從知識到行動的新範式。 本工作坊將以英語進行,以下為此線上工作坊的兩個場次:

About the event

Climate change is arguably the most complex and significant long-term threat facing our planet today. The dramatic impacts of global warming are no longer a far-off concern for the future, but are now visible in the form of extreme weather events and other natural disasters, with related impacts on communities and economies in every corner of the world. One has to look no further than the daily news to see the life-threatening and costly outcomes of climate change—from the destruction and intensity of recent typhoons/hurricanes and other weather events to raging wildfires to coastal flooding and sea level rise. For instance, both Taiwan and the American West are facing severe droughts in 2021. Other impacts are less visible but equally dangerous—ocean acidification, loss of biodiversity, threats to food production, and more. The causes and influences of climate change are beyond borders, and therefore require internationally joint efforts to generate climate solutions.

 

National Taiwan University (NTU) is the operator of the Education for Climate Change Program (supported by the Ministry of Education). NTU is working together with the Global Environmental Education Partnership (GEEP) to organize the first Taiwan-U.S. Bilateral Workshop on Climate Education. With a focus on the higher education sector, this workshop aims to establish a mutual understanding for climate educators between the two sides, building capacity for teaching, and create a new paradigm from knowledge to action. This event will be preceded in English. Two sessions of the virtual workshop are listed below:

 

Session 1: Climate education at a glance between Taiwan and the U.S.

  • Time: 9-10 AM, May 20, 2021 (Taiwan Time) / 9-10 PM, May 19, 2021 (US Eastern Time)
  • Moderator: Prof. Hwong-Wen Ma (National Taiwan University)
  • Speakers:

Prof. Ching-Pin Tung (National Taiwan University)

Ms. Michelle Wyman (Global Council for Science and the Environment)

 

Session 2:  Empowering climate action through education

  • Time: 9-10 PM, May 27, 2021 (Taiwan Time) / 9-10 AM, May 27, 2021 (US Eastern Time)
  • Moderator: Ms. Judy Braus (North American Association for Environmental Education)
  • Speakers:

Prof. Shin-Cheng Yeh (National Taiwan Normal University)

Prof. Martha Monroe (University of Florida)

Ms. Jen Kretzer (Climate Initiatives, the Wild Center)

 

We welcome educators from universities, high schools, and NGOs, as well as graduate and undergraduate students who are passionate about climate education to join this online event. This event is free for participation. The language is English.
