Description:
The challenges of today’s global and climate challenges call for profoundly different ways of thinking, living and working. At the heart of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals is the need for creative thinking; allowing for us to reflect, adapt, address and develop new solutions, as well as be creative in how we communicate, reflect, and tell our stories in ways that inspire others towards sustained positive change. Creativity is core to our shared future. It also requires personal care so that it too can be a sustained resource for us to tap into rather than become burned out or blocked.
In this hands-on workshop, participants will explore ways to refill, refuel, and boost their thinking through creative practices and time-tested tools, allowing them to remain inspired, discover opportunities, and foster adaptive and flexible thinking.

Sustainable Development Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages
Sustainable Development Goal 4: Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all
The United Nations describes the importance of this goal stating "Ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being at all ages is essential to sustainable development. Urgent and concerted action is needed to set the world back on a trajectory towards achieving Goal 3."
The United Nations explains the purpose of this goal, stating "Providing quality education for all is fundamental to creating a peaceful and prosperous world. Education gives people the knowledge and skills they need to stay healthy, get jobs and foster tolerance. It is estimated that 147 million children missed more than half of their in-class instruction over the past two years. This generation of children could lose a combined total of $17 trillion in lifetime earnings in present value."
