As previously reported on this site the Welsh Assembly Government, in collaboration with Science Shops Wales and supported by key partners, has been facilitating a number of regional networks for community and Third sector groups, wanting to contribute to efforts to mitigate the effects of climate change.
These Community Action for Climate Change Networks are running a second series of FREE events during November 2009.
In order to meet your local need to take action on climate change the events will offer an opportunity to:
- network with others from community groups, from small businesses, form local authorities and others,
- build on the learning gained at the Sustainable Behaviour change workshop that many of you attended on 15th September in Gregynog, Newtown,
- develop local action plans, and
- Identify future training and development requirements
Each event will have a slightly different focus for developing action plans and you are welcomed to come along to your local Network and /or whichever location suits your needs best.
Newport – November 12 – will explore action planning on a large scale
Llangollen – November 18 – will focus on a joint understanding of good practice for Small and Medium Enterprises and community action
Aberystwyth – November 26 – will use as live examples from three different community groups that are currently planning local action
All events will have inputs from a diverse group of speakers to stimulate our thinking and planning.
