MAP Climate Ambassadors

A reader writes in:

Minorities and Philosophy (MAP) and Philosophers for Sustainability (PfS) are collaborating to begin the MAP Climate Ambassadors Initiative. The goal of the MAP Climate Ambassadors is to effect positive change toward environmental sustainability within and beyond academic philosophy by forming a network of MAP organizers dedicated to this goal. Each MAP chapter will be encouraged to have at least one Climate Ambassador. The ambassadors will have the opportunity to collaborate and to attend and organize events focused on strategies for advocating for sustainability. They will be expected to share what they have learned with their own MAP chapters and department. For example, ambassadors might attend one of the Philosophers for Sustainability virtual workshops on the APA Good Practices Guide as it relates to sustainability. Following the event, ambassadors could put on similar workshops on their campus and/or region. There are many ways to participate. We expect that this will be a dynamic group that has a significant impact on the field of philosophy.
