Join the Information School, the Department of Human-Centered Design & Engineering and UW peers to explore the areas where climate research meets human experience – using human‑centered approaches to turn data into practical solutions that help communities, inform decisions and strengthen our shared future.

What's a campfire session? 

It’s a fresh twist on the usual lecture. Instead of lengthy presentations, each speaker will offer a focused 5–7 minute overview of their research.

Then things shift: The speaker becomes a facilitator, and the audience takes part in an open, guided conversation. Everyone can share ideas, ask questions, and learn from each other. Curious questions and new viewpoints are welcome. It’s relaxed, interactive and built around the perspectives people bring to the group.
