kyu House put down stakes in its hometown for the very first time for Climate Week NYC.
Over the course of three days (September 23-25, 2024), more than a thousand guests braved diplomatic and presidential gridlock to check out kyu House dialogues, workshops, and debates from BEworks, C2, Gehl, IDEO, IDEO.org, Kepler, and SYPartners, along with partners like Kite Insights, BSR, World Resources Institute, Rocky Mountain Institute, the Aspen Institute, LinkedIn, and others.
Creativity in action was on full display as kyu House took on: gender x climate; what motivates sustainable lifestyle decisions; the space between climate and AI; the importance of cities in the climate fight; the importance of empowering next-generation leaders; whether climate action needs American political leadership; and more.
