Overview

Join SCVO's Growing Climate Confidence community and find out how to boost the resilience of your organisation. Understand how to adapt to climate change and explore how this can support delivery of your mission.

Overall aim

Organisations face increasing risks from climate-related events such as flooding, heatwaves, and storms. This training will help your voluntary organisation to build resilience and learn how to cope with the impacts of climate change.

Addressing climate change may seem like a massive challenge - it is complex and it isn’t easy to know where to start. But it is both crucial and possible to build resilience and adapt to the changing climate whilst tackling other important issues in your community.

By the end of the workshop, you will have:

• a checklist of climate risks relevant to your organisation
• identified potential adaptation actions to make your organisation more climate resilient

Description

Sniffer is offering a one-day Climate Resilience Training workshop for third sector organisations. This training aims to boost climate resilience across Scotland’s voluntary organisations.

It's designed to provide the tools and knowledge needed to tackle both current and future impacts of climate change. The training will be run in a small group of ten to ensure plenty of time for conversation and exchange between the participants.

The day will include an introduction to climate resilience, hands-on exercises, and opportunities for participants to exchange knowledge and experiences.

Who is the event aimed at?

This online session is open to voluntary organisations operating anywhere in Scotland. The session will run online from 10am to 3pm with a break from 12pm to 1pm.
