Welcome to the ECOLISE & Communities for Future newsletter
Call for Communities for Future members to join in at the EU's most important event for environmental policy, with a focus on biodiversity, zero pollution and circular economy.
EU Green Week -join here When: 30 May - 5 June 2022 Application deadline: 15 April 2022
Community-led initiatives can make a difference in bringing the EU Green Deal to local levels. Being a partner event of the "EU Green Week" means visibility for your initiative on a EU level, and holds also an opportunity for networking with EU politicians and administrators. The application process is quite simple, and Ecolise encourages its members and network to make the most of this opportunity.
We are excited to offer you an online session to discover and explore the potential of the European Day of Sustainable Communities (EDSC) in strengthening and mainstreaming community-led approaches to the climate emergency.
This CfF session will be a chance to learn more about the benefits of organising an event for the EDSC, be part of a Europe-wide joint celebration and get to know and connect with like-minded organisations making community-led initiatives more visible.
During the session you will hear inspiring stories about the type and diversity of events that take place during the EDSC, the benefits of participating and get insight into the practicalities of organising such events.
Do you want to gain skills and knowledge on Communicating Climate Change?Do you want to reach new audiences? George Marshall is an advisor to the World Bank, UNFCCC and has designed climate communications strategies for Wales, Canada, Colombia and India.
Online 2.00pm - 4.30pm Thursday 7 April.
