Fundamental to the success of OzGREEN's approach is the understanding that local communities are best equipped to understand how change can happen in their local area. We seek to strengthen community resilience and capacity to create innovative ways to tackle sustainability challenges and connect change makers locally, nationally and globally.
OzGREEN's Sustainability in Action process embodies leading edge learning and leadership methodologies such as transformative learning, participatory leadership, vision driven and strength based approach, deep listening and strategic questioning.
The process facilitates movement through 4-stages:
Focus
Mapping where we are now - an up to date, hard hitting background briefing about local and international environmental challenges
Vision
Reflection, questioning and visioning processes to develop a vision for yourself and your community as sustainability leaders
Change
Creative thinking, innovation and brainstorming ideas for change
Action

This approach demonstrably fosters local ownership and harnesses the passion and intelligence residing in young people.
