Educate the Language
 
Ecological Awareness and Emotional Intelligence
for a sustainable world

Language drives emotions, and emotions drive action.


The words we choose deeply influence how we feel, how we connect with others, and ultimately, how we act. In this webinar, we will explore the relationship between language and emotions, reflecting on their impact on society and how they shape our present and future.

We will also introduce The Stories We Live By, a free ecolinguistics course offered by the University of Gloucestershire and featured on the UNSDG Learn platform. Join us to discover how language can become a tool for transformation toward a more sustainable and conscious future.

 

We are honoured and thrilled to have with us:
Arran Stibbe, Professor of Ecological Linguistics
Mariana Roccia: Research Impact Consultant
Jessica Hampton: Environmental Sociolinguist
 
📍 17th December, 6pm CET/Vienna Time
