About this event

Would you like to deliver more sustainable events but think your audiences won’t comply with your initiatives?

As an event manager do you get frustrated that your attendees contaminate your recycling bins, complain if there is not enough meat to eat or choose to drive to your events and won’t carbon offset their travel?

Do you feel powerless to change their behaviours?

Have you tried environmental messaging but found it does not engage people?

It can be disheartening when you have invested money and time in ‘doing the right thing’ but feeling like no-one else cares.

Applying Behaviour Change principles could help you:

Understand your audience’s behaviours and defaults at events
Discover why they don’t see or read your messaging
Identify the right moment to communicate with them
Drive their behaviour to the sustainable choice without even needing to tell them
Communicating in ways that engage them without needing to mention the environment

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

This will be an interactive workshop working on real-world event challenges, bring yours along or learn from others.

About the trainer

The Sustainable Sidekicks provide training and support for changemakers, campaigners, green champions and business owners who's purpose is to reduce their environmental impact and increase their positive impact.

Lead Sidekick Livvy Drake has a background in events and marketing. When she began working in the field of sustainable events and plastics campaigning she realised that the environmental sector was not engaging people outside of its green bubble. So she began training in and working with behaviour change practitioners to understand how greater crossover could be achieved and how marketing and communications of environmental issues could be presented differently.

She has worked on waste reduction projects for events and festivals, award-winning plastic reduction initiatives as well as providing training and support to reuse schemes and engagement initiatives.

These training modules on behaviour change package up some of the key principles Livvy finds are applicable to behaviours on a day-to-day basis and can easily be adopted and understood to deliver change outside of the ‘eco echo chamber’.
