You are invited to the second event of our Summer Series, a presentation and discussion with Kristen Patterson of Project Drawdown titled Advancing Climate and Poverty Solutions through Equitable Change on Thursday, July 8^th, at 2pm ET/11am PT.

You can RSVP for this event here!

Project Drawdown’s new initiative, Drawdown Lift, studies and communicates holistic ways to tackle climate change, public health, and poverty in low- and middle-income countries. During her presentation, Kristen will delve into the important roles of poverty alleviation and equity in health and education as climate solutions.

Kristen joined Project Drawdown in January as the Director of Drawdown Lift. Kristen’s service as a Peace Corps volunteer in rural Niger deeply influenced her career, which has focused on the nexus of community development, public health, and environmental conservation. Kristen holds an MPH from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, an MS in Conservation Biology and Sustainable Development and a Certificate in African Studies from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and a BA from Colby College.

We hope you'll join us for this interesting presentation!
