Sustainable Action Training

A 1-hour ‘lunch and learn’ style presentation that explores what sustainability means in practice, in workplaces, in communities, in homes at school or on campus.

Tailored for businesses, organisations, community groups, or students. This program can be delivered in person and/or online. 

Why Action Curious Presentations? 

• Cost-effective, low-involvement way to introduce your audience to the basics of climate science.
• Provides practical actions designed to reduce individual emissions and environmental impact at home and work. 
• Ideal for audiences with limited time.

A collaborative, game‑based workshop that uses evidence‑based sustainability science to make complex systems understandable and empowering.

These unique and engaging 3-hour workshops guide participants through an innovative 42-card game ‘Climate Fresk’ that breaks down complex scientific concepts into accessible and fun learning.

Collaboration is key as participants work together to build a map of the climate system and foster a deeper understanding of climate science. Once armed with scientific knowledge, certified facilitators deliver content and facilitate open discussions around sustainable solutions and individual action-taking, tailored to the specific audience.

While there is an online delivery option, Action Learner Workshops are most effective when delivered in person. 

Why Action Learner Workshops? 

For organisations:

• A unique team-building experience.
• Builds capability and motivation to lead sustainability initiatives.
• A powerful launchpad for organisational sustainability engagement.

For individuals:

• Learn complex concepts in a fun, interactive, non‑overwhelming format.
• Build confidence and clarity about personal sustainability action.

Action Leader Training offers participants and organisations internationally recognised Carbon Literacy^© certification by completing an engaging and comprehensive 8-hour course.

Participants begin with a short online pre‑learning module before attending an interactive in‑person session. To achieve certification, they complete a brief assessment demonstrating their understanding and commitment to meaningful climate action. Organisations that offer training to their team can also apply for certification as a Carbon Literate Organisation^©.  

Our facilitators deliver the course using interactive activities, videos, collaborative games, group discussions, presentations and case studies covering essential sustainability topics, including:

• The science: How the climate works and why it’s changing.
• Policy and the economy: Understanding the systems that shape sustainability decisions.
• Fair and equitable action: Exploring the human side of sustainability.
• Solutions and action-taking: Your role in a positive future.

Upon receiving Carbon Literacy^© certification, participants will be able to articulate their knowledge of sustainability and understand how they can take action, whether that be at home, school, work or in the community. 

Training can be delivered in one full day or split across two shorter sessions. In line with Carbon Literacy® guidelines, at least 50% of the course must be delivered in person to ensure a high‑quality, collaborative learning experience.
