Over the summer Science for Georgia, Dogwood Alliance, Center for Black Women’s Wellness (CBWW), and Emory’s Center for Children’s Health Assessment, Research Translation, and Combating Environmental Racism (CHARTER) hosted the Environmental Justice & Climate Protection Conference.

Multiple organizations spoke about successful example community coalitions that are working to address environmental health and injustices. But there was not enough time for questions, comments, and discussion.

This fireside chat series is to enable a deeper discussion. We aim to foster a conversation that raises awareness, inspires actions, and creates a path towards a healthier and more sustainable future for all. 

Sept 12, 11am – Center for Black Women’s Wellness

Featured Speakers: April Reid and Morgan Barnes

In this segment, we will drive into the interconnectedness of health, the environment, and equity. We’ll explore how environmental factors impact the wellness of Black women and why addressing disparities is essential for a thriving community.
