Hip Hop Climate Conference & Concert
Hip Hop Climate Conference & Concert
AVELA - A Vision for Engineering Literacy & Access (AVELA) and Hip Hop Is Green present a unique hip-hop and science-forward environmental event, the Hip Hop Climate Conference & Concert (HHCCC) to be held on Friday, November 1, and Thursday, November 7 in Seattle. Conceived by Black, Brown, and BIPOC climate advocates, and produced by a Black female-led production team, this event is designed to inspire direct action, promote science-based solutions to climate change, and uplift hip-hop as a culture rooted in both earth and advocacy. The Hip Hop Climate Conference & Concert seeks to unite hip-hop culture and STEM learning by activating a new generation of scientists, climate advocates, and promoters of healthful living.
Through events such as the Hip Hop Climate Conference & Concert, we strive to increase Black and Brown enrollment in STEM as a pathway to careers in science and eco-activism.
