Speaker: Dan Hackborn Due to the global and interconnected nature of anthropogenic climate change, conceptualizing what meaningful climate action might look like within your own institution can often be overwhelming. In this workshop we will introduce a tool, the Mitigation-Adaptation-Community-Knowledge (MACK) conceptual model, for situating climate action within local library contexts. Alongside a guiding case study, we will illustrate how this model can be applied by library decision makers to clarify and analyse their institution’s unique capacities for climate action amidst their community’s specific needs.
