CAELI Green Career Call to Action Webinar

Watch our launch webinar for the California “Call to Action: Educating for a Green Economy” White Paper. (1 hour presentation followed by a 30 minute optional discussion).
About the Call to Action
The Green Career Innovation Hub of the California Environmental Literacy Initiative (CAELI) is advocating for the creation of a statewide strategic plan to secure equitable access for TK-16 students to the high-growth, high-quality green careers essential to a sustainable future. A dynamic and diverse pipeline of trained and qualified sustainability professionals working in key occupations and sectors is needed to meet our statewide sustainability, equity, and economic goals.
The resulting statewide plan will guide and align education and workforce development programming, with the intent of attracting and strategically directing millions of dollars of public and private funding to a data-driven approach to strengthen California’s global leadership in the green economy.
