In the afternoons, they learnt about science communication and how to tell their own stories about climate change. Stories regarding climate change and Pasifika people were often told by non-Pasifika voices, Dr Savoie said. "What we’re hoping to do is get these kids to really express how climate change is affecting them," she said. Although Evelyn did not know much about climate change before the workshop, she was shocked to learn the repercussions it was having on the world.
