About you

In your personal or professional life are you focused on communicating about:

Environmental issues

The 3 P’s of sustainability
Waste and plastics minimisation

Carbon reduction and the climate crisis

The link between environmental and social injustices

With so many crises and an urgency to act you are determined to engage as many people as possible so they take action.

But inspiring that kind of change can be hard… especially when it seems like other people don’t care in the same way you do, especially people outside of the eco echo chamber.

But there is a way to reach more people and communicate to new audiences….

Using the principles of Behaviour Change can help you to:

Frame messages differently to inspire new audiences

Address the fears and concerns of your audience

Widen your repertoire of social media content

Motivate action

Join Sustainability and Behaviour Change Consultant, Livvy Drake for this interactive 1.5 hour online workshop, where she will show you how behaviour change principles can transform your communication campaigns.

You will come away with the recording, slides and a quick reference guide plus new ways of approaching your campaigns to reach a wider audience

She will share with you tried and tested methods from behavioural economists, neuroscientists and communicators.

Testimonials from past participants:

“I was scrolling through your slides yesterday to help with a project... really glad I joined the workshops. Gold dust for environmental communicators!" - Myfanwy Millward, Ethical Copywriter

"I'll be referring people with an interest in behaviour change to attend future workshops; this is the type of information that needs to be disseminated to local councillors and other community change makers so they move beyond the "let's make a poster" mindset." - Dr. Elaine Massung "Founder of Off-the-Ground.org

"I think it's been really interesting to get the reminder that other people won't be persuaded by thinking ‘I need to do this for the planet' and to relate it to their benefits." - Kathryn Cook, Change Communications Manager, LSBU
