Workshop by Charley Haward. Sunday 27th April 10.00 am - 5.00 pm at Evolution, 2 Sillwood Terrace BN1 2LR Tel 01273 204204 www.evolutionarts.org.uk
'Transition' means we need to learn how-to redesign our local communities - creating a vision of how we can transform our lives for a sustainable future. This workshop is inspired by examples of sustainable urban design and Transition Town projects. We will be exploring how the Transition process can empower us to co-create a future vision and action plan for the people of Brighton and Hove.
Cost: £45 (£35 concessions and earlybird) per day, payable to Evolution
Part of a series of workshops on Designing a Sustainable Future
People are getting more concerned about climate change and about the risks of severe economic recession as oil production passes its peak.Many now want to 'Transition' towards living more sustainably. But their desires are not really reflected within wider society. The 'Transition Network' offers practical, positive steps for whole communities to work together to use energy wisely and create a more positive life for all.
Charley Haward is an educator with over twenty years experience. As a 'Transition' facilitator, she is one of the founding members of Transition Brighton & Hove and is actively involved with local Transition projects in Brighton and Lewes. She has studied Permaculture with Ben Law and applies sustainability principles in her work as an artist and designer.
