Net Zero Week: Community Engagement and Net Zero

Shaping sustainable futures requires collective action, innovative solutions, and a shared commitment to sustainability. This webinar focuses on the need for active engagement from all stakeholders, including private, public, and third sector organisations, as well as local communities in achieving net zero transition. By co-planning, co-designing, and co-delivering initiatives, we can achieve a successful transition to net zero. Involving community members in planning, decision-making, and implementation ensures greater success and long-lasting benefits for both people and the planet. Community engagement harnesses local knowledge, fosters collaboration, and drives impactful change. However, it also presents challenges. 

Our webinar brings together visionary experts who will discuss the role of community engagement in net zero transitions through innovative approaches for creating a sustainable future. Whether you are an experienced environmental advocate or just starting out, this webinar can offer valuable insights and actionable ideas to help you make a positive impact through community engagement in the net zero transition.

The event is open for OU staff, students and the public. Please register here to receive the Teams link to the webinar.
