Graduate Student Discussion: Climate Solutions and Behaviour Change

February 9, 2024, 11:00 am to 11:50 am

Join us for our monthly Graduate Student Dialogues where we explore topics of relevance to students engaging in climate solutions focused research.  These events are hosted on Zoom and open to all interested students in any discipline and at any campus.  

Those conducting research in the climate solutions space may be wondering how to share their research in order to spur climate action.  But how do we translate research into real world change and how do we define changing behaviour for the benefit of the environment?  Join fellow graduate student Jade Radke for a discussion around pro-environmental behaviour change, including an opportunity to explore how these ideas may apply to your own research activities.  

This event will be held over Zoom.

Jade Radke (she/her) is an MA student in the Behavioral Sustainability Lab at IRES and is supervised by Dr. Jiaying Zhao. Her research focuses on the use of positive reinforcement to elicit pro-environmental behavior change. She is a recipient of the CGS-M Fellowship 2022-2023 and the Indigenous Graduate Fellowship 2022-2024. She is also the master’s student representative for the RES Student Society.
