VI. Climate Café Ljubljana - June 2026
Tokratna Podnebna kavarna, že šesta po vrsti, bo posvečena **prilagajanju podnebnim spremembam**. Tudi tokrat bo koncept dogodka sledil preizkušenemu receptu z nekaj uvodnimi krajšimi predstavitvami strokovnjakov in praktikantov s področja, potem pa bo več časa namenjenega debati.
Kot prvi govornici bomo imeli na začetku čast prisluhniti **mag. Mojci Dolinar**, ki na ARSO že od začetka razvija podnebne projekcije za Slovenijo na podlagi trendov iz preteklosti in zna iz zapletenih grafov izločiti lekcije za državo in državljane na poljuden način. Sledila bo predstavitev staroste slovenskega prilagajanja, **dr. Lučke Kajfež Bogataj**, ki se bo tokrat posvetila predvsem opozorilom o implikacijah podnebnih sprememb za varnost in konflikt v svetu. Na koncu pa bo **dr. Janez Berdavs** na osnovi predstavljene nuje hitrega in celovitega prilagajanja predstavil izzive, ki ji postavlja podnebni zakon za uspešno prilagajanje v Sloveniji.
S tem si želimo začeti **široko javno razpravo o tem kaj je cilj prilagajanja v Sloveniji in kako do tja priti**. Z udeleženci bomo na delavniški način zastavili ključne teze in kritike trenutnega sistema s ciljem zasnovati strokovno poljudni članek za objavo v medijih.
Vabljeni, da se nam vsi, ki vas to področje zanima, pridružite v sredo, **10\. junija 2026 ob 19\.30**, v prostorih **Info točke Misija 100** na **Pogačarjevem trgu 3.**
Prijave zbiramo preko obrazca na spletni strani: https://ipres.si/neprilagojeno-prilagajanje/.
Lepo vabljeni!

Open Heart Meditation with Amrita Rani
Open Heart Meditation Sessions with Amrita Rani
(Live in-person and online on selected Thursdays via Zoom)
You are warmly invited to join the Open Heart Meditation Sessions with Amrita Rani.
These sessions are created both for beginners and seasoned practitioners who wish to deepen their meditation practice, stabilize awakening, and walk the path of enlightenment with guidance and support. Whether you are new or experienced, each gathering offers a grounded structure to help you build consistency in daily practice and grow in confidence on your spiritual path.
At the heart of Open Heart teachings is direct recognition. Through the Two-Part Formula and precise meditative guidance, you are supported in shifting from self-based mode into selfless awareness, again and again, until cessation of self-based suffering takes place.
A central and deeply transformative practice in Open Heart is guru yoga. Through guru yoga, the practitioner directly connects with awakened awareness through devotion, transmission, and experiential recognition. With the help of this profound method, one recognizes their true selfless ease, the natural, effortless state beyond space and time.
Alongside guru yoga, the sessions include insight meditation (Vipashyana), tantric methods, dynamic concentration, trauma-healing techniques, and foundational practices such as Bodhicitta prayers. Each session includes guided meditation, space for questions, reflection, and personal support.
Rani’s meditation sessions are held live on Zoom on selected Thursdays from 18:30 to 20:00 (CET). Recordings may be available for continued integration and practice on her YouTube channel, The Sweetness of Enlightenment.
Participation fee:
15 € per session
Please make your payment in advance via PayPal before joining, to Rani’s PayPal account: kaisaeskeli@gmail.com

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Finding Product Insights
**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose**
Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap.
Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn:
* Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge
* How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change
* Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction
* How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools
This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work.
**About Our Speaker**
[Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
