In 2020, communities face huge challenges in the face of COVID-19 and the Climate Emergency. Yet it is community energy and activism itself which must be harnessed and supported to drive the recovery from the pandemic and the transition to a Zero-Carbon world.

Our speakers will take us through their visions for meeting the key challenges of the present and creating truly sustainable future communities.
