We are organising five national webinars (in national languages - German, Hungarian, Latvian, Spanish and Swedish) on the main outcomes of the project in the coming months, in late 2024 and early in 2025.
What are the webinars about?
The webinars build on the results of the EU 1.5° Lifestyles research project and aims to provide participants with useful information and tools to help put 1.5°lifestyles into practice. Topics covered will include:
- What are 1.5° lifestyles?
- Why do we need lifestyle change, is it not enough decarbonise industry and change technologies?
- What is the carbon footprint, and how can we use it to find the most impactful climate actions and lifestyle changes?
- Which are the most impactful lifestyle options in … on average?
- Are these the same for everyone?
- What kind of materials and tools does the EU 1.5° Lifestyles project provide for those working in this field?
- How could we use them together with other existing tools and materials?
Although the content and structure of the webinars will be adapted to local needs, at most of them you will also have the opportunity to ask questions. Furthermore, the last 30 minutes will be devoted to a more interactive session where participants will be able to share information about their already existing tools (if any), and we will aim to facilitate an exchange of experience between participants.
Who are the webinars for?
The webinars are primarily aimed at those that work directly with citizens to support their sustainable lifestyle change in different contexts. For example:
- representatives, staff and volunteers of NGOs,
- those working in formal and informal education,
- members of staff at community centres and libraries concerned with organising programmes and activities related to sustainability and sustainable lifestyles,
- organisers of community groups and clubs,
- community activists and influencers,
- municipality employees working in departments concerned with citizen involvement and education, and
- anyone who feels they could actively help to achieve 1.5° lifestyles!
When will the webinars happen?
The national webinars will be held between November 2024 and February 2025.
How can you register for the webinars?
Participation in the webinars is free of charge, but registration is required. Please check the national websites and contact the relevant partners for more details.
If you do not speak the local languages of these 5 countries, stay tuned because we will also organise an English language webinar in March 2025.
