Program Description
Event Details
Abigail Hayne (she/her) is the Youth Climate Engagement Coordinator with the Governor’s Office of Policy Innovation and the Future. She organizes opportunities for young Mainers to learn about the state’s climate action plan, Maine Won’t Wait, and how they can play a role in Maine’s climate future. She also garners youth perspectives and feedback to bring back to the Climate Council as they prepare to update Maine Won’t Wait – due in December 2024.
As a part of this work, Abigail will be hosting a climate action workshop at the Auburn Public Library at 3pm on April 24th, where she will explain how Maine is acting on climate, and how young people can find climate action that aligns with their interests and strengths.
