Climate Action Attitudes

Project Outline

An initiative of the Learn Local Family Learning Partnerships Program, this project is designed to engage families in hands-on workshops focused on climate mitigation and adaptation.

Through collaboration with local environmental experts, service providers, and family service organizations, the project promotes a positive family learning experience.

By harnessing the expertise and resources of Bass Coast Adult Learning and Bass Coast Landcare Network, these workshops will explore key sustainability topics, including:

🌾 Food production
🚲 Sustainable transportation
⚡ Household energy efficiency
♻️ Waste management
🌎 Climate action strategies

Objectives

Key objectives include:

encouraging participation in climate-related family activities
fostering partnerships between local service providers linked to the clean economy and family services
raising awareness about local adult learning and training options.

Through networking and resource development, the project seeks to empower individuals and organisations to contribute to a clean economy and resilient communities.

Home Learning Packs

We are grateful that Bass Coast Community Foundation has provided funding for take-home learning packs as part of this project.

These packs will include an acknowledgement of country bookmark created by a local First Nations artist, a locally created children's story book, a Boomerang Bag, and kid's sustainable learning activities. The pack also includes information on the clean economy for parents.
