Joshua Freedman – Building Climate Resilience Through Emotional Engagement

Climate change is one of the most complex challenges of our time, not only environmentally, but also humanly.

In this video, Joshua Freedman (Six Seconds), member of the European University Festival Scientific Committee, highlights how emotions play a central role in people’s ability to remain engaged and active in the face of an ongoing crisis with no clear endpoint.

Recent research shows that approaches based on sharing, emotional expression, and collaboration can significantly reduce climate anxiety, isolation, and feelings of powerlessness.

Emotions are not simply reactions: they are signals of what matters and essential tools for building a sustainable future.
