Join a group of people interested in making communities more
sustainable and resilient, in order to deal with the depletion of oil
resources and the ever-growing signs of the effect of climate change.
Learn what needs to be done and develop skills and attitudes to make
your life more sustainable in a changing world.
This introductory workshop aims to inform participants of the
Transition Town philosophy and its practical applications. We will
give you some history of the Transition movement, information about
the psychology of change in a changing world and the importance of
visioning for the future through role-plays, exercises and other
interactive methods.
Through working together on the different aspects of transition we can
begin to change our reliance on oil and find more sustainable ways to
live whilst having concern for our environment. We can still avoid the
worst effects of climate change but only if we are prepared to engage
as a community with the difficulties we need to overcome by acting
locally while thinking globally.
