Leading Climate Action

Purposeful peer learning opportunities for anyone leading climate action in their team, group or organisation in Dudley borough.

Organisations in Dudley are increasingly developing climate action work. Dudley Council approved a Climate Action Plan in March 2024. In November 2023 Dudley CVS trustees adopted a Climate Justice Policy and Climate Action Plan developed by staff.

Maybe your team or organisation has (or is working on) a climate action plan, a policy around climate adaptation, or is bringing people together around climate action. If you are one of the people leading such work you might have a desire to connect with others who are also leading work on climate action locally. At times you might feel a bit stuck or lonely, or that it’s too hard or taking too long. What if you could unlock potential with the power of peers? Together we can inspire and support each other, share what we’re doing and what’s helping us.

If you are leading on climate action, are curious to learn alongside others, and would welcome support to help you learn, create and take action, we’d love to meet you.

Here are just some things we could explore together:

• Taking practical action in our own organisations, and making it easier for everyone.

• Examples and resources to help with developing climate action policies and plans.

• Developing nature connection practices to nurture pro-environmental attitudes and behaviours.

• Supporting transition in communities; community led-climate action and adaptation.

• Showcasing, celebrating and spreading the word about groups and organisations taking climate action in Dudley Borough.

• Exploring climate justice, and its relationship with health equity.

• Cultivating longer term thinking and behaviours.

Leading Climate Action is an offer from Time Rebel Lorna Prescott, a member of the CoLab Dudley team and Dudley CVS officer. This is part of our work on Dudley People’s School for Climate Justice.
