Please join us for the Paul O. Ingram Lecture on Wednesday, April 22, featuring Dr. Stephanie Kaza. Drawing on Buddhist philosophy and practice, Dr. Kaza explores how concepts such as interbeing, bodhicitta, and ecosattva shape ethically grounded climate activism. She reframes climate emotions—greed, rage, dread, and despair—as transformative energies that can deepen care for human–earth relationships.

Dr. Kaza is Professor Emerita of Environmental Studies at the University of Vermont and a longtime practitioner of Soto Zen Buddhism. She is the recipient of multiple honors, including UVM’s George V. Kidder Outstanding Faculty Award and the 2024 Freudenberg Lifetime Achievement Award.

Attend in-person or watch the livestream on PLU's YouTube channel. Free and open to the public.
