Curriculum: 2 day workshop introducing the skills and practices required to initiate the successful Transition Town model of local response to global challenges.   
 
Learn how to:

  • Initiate a transition group in your community
  • Build awareness of peak oil and climate change
  • Engage citizens from all walks of life in neighbourhood or community projects
