Psychology for a Safe Climate (PSC) is currently seeking new members to join the Board. We are looking to appoint a new Secretary on the Board, who will be responsible for governance and compliance with constitutional requirements. We are also seeking additional new Board Members to ensure preservation of the organisation’s culture and values as well as successful succession planning over the coming years.
PSC is a not-for-profit organisation founded in 2010 in Melbourne. We work to build people’s capacity to respond constructively to climate change by promoting and strengthening mental health and wellbeing, engaging with those working on climate change, the caring professions, and the broader community.
