Climate Ready Communities
Are you looking for ways to help your community group get up to speed on climate, nature and environmental action?
Our Climate Action team is helping communities get Climate Ready this summer with the offer of support, tailored to suit your group’s interests and aims.
Whether you feel an informal chat is best, or you are looking for a short presentation and discussion, we have a range of sessions that can be adjusted to suit your needs. All of our programmes provide an introduction to climate change, but more importantly, provide examples of how we can make small adjustments to find a new balance, protect our planet and all do our bit.
No previous knowledge is required, so take a look below to find a session that works for you or your group and get in touch.
The sessions are all funded by DAERA through the Carrier Bag Levy, so are completely free!
Climate Conversations - An informal question and answer session to get the conversation going, usually lasting about an hour.
Climate Briefing - This involves a short 20–30-minute talk, followed by an open Q&A session to explore issues you are interested in, whole session 60-90 minutes.
Climate Smart - A CPD certified training session, covering the science and community based solution. Find out what actions you can take to be part of the growing movement of people responding to the climate challenge.
Carbon Smart Communities - A full-day, certified programme to ensure your group is climate confident and fully informed about how as individuals and communities we form a vital part of the climate solution.
We offer scheduled sessions to book or can arrange a bespoke session just for your group - let us know what suits.
Please note that all groups will get free access to the new myEARTH website, signposting opportunities across NI for you and your family to get involved.
