Understanding environmental impact and creating a sustainable charity

Climate change is reducing the quality of our lives and widening social inequalities. This course will give you an understanding of carbon, net zero and environmental change and how it's impacting the charity sector. It will provide tools and information to help make your charity more sustainable.

• understand the science behind climate change and how it’s impacting the charity and voluntary sector
• explore tools and resources to start measuring and managing your charity’s environmental impact
• identify steps you can take to improve resource efficiency and reduce your charity’s environmental impact. You’ll learn how these actions can improve financial performance, increase stakeholder engagement and open doors to new opportunities
• connect with other organisations that are already taking action and form partnerships to accelerate sustainability.

Who should attend?
