Overview
CSE (the Centre for Sustainable Energy) believe that local councils have a big role to play when it comes to engaging their local communities to take action on climate in their own lives. This training workshop will introduce key engagement methods and principles that local councils should consider when starting to engage their communities on the topic of climate change. The workshop will introduce approaches to tailor communication to reach a wide audience.
