What is it about?
This 2-part workshop will help you find and build partnerships beyond the environmental field, get practical tools and strategies for collaboration and grow your organisation’s network in meaningful ways. If you are curious about working with social justice partners and interested in developing cross-sectoral projects, this workshop is for you!
The workshop is held entirely online and split into two parts up to 2 hours each. The format is different from a webinar or a lecture – we expect your active participation, and there will be some exercises to try out between the sessions.
Who is it for?
This workshop is designed for participants from youth-led climate organisations who want to collaborate with actors beyond the environmental field. We also welcome participants from a wider range of youth organisations.
What will you get?
- Learn to conduct stakeholder mapping and identify potential partners outside the environmental field, while finding shared interests.
- Gain practical tools for building collaborations that work, including approaches to communication and outreach.
- Draft an initial partnership strategy or idea relevant to your organisation’s context.
By participating in at least one workshop in the series, your organisation will be eligible to apply for a micro-grant to turn your learning into action.
More details about the grant will be shared during the workshop.
