The project aims to recruit and train 2 cohorts of community climate advocates to work within their local Cumbrian communities. Each cohort will receive carbon literacy training, train-the-trainer support, and further training from the Centre for Alternative Technology. They will be supported and work alongside the existing volunteers to deliver a range of climate science training, climate conversations and other activities based on their strengths and circumstances. The project will focus on areas of high economic deprivation: lessons learned from the first stage of their previous EF grant found that focusing on these areas has the most impact. Beneficiaries: 20 new volunteers to work alongside 17 existing volunteers, with the aim of reaching approximately 700-1000 people (UK).
