Join us for a free webinar - ‘Getting started on the journey of sustainability in sport’
We are delighted to invite you to a free webinar, focused on initiating environmental sustainability journeys on 25 May.
While the sports industry is increasingly motivated to take meaningful action when it comes to climate change, limited time, resources, and internal expertise often pose obstacles when determining the first steps. We have partnered with the National Sports & Physical Activity Convention and Claire Poole, a global expert and advocate as well as the Founder and CEO of Sport Positive, to offer a complimentary webinar to guide you in initiating your sustainability journey and to share some of the steps global organisations have taken. This workshop serves as a prelude to the NSC and the National Sports & Environment Conference scheduled for July.
Join this session to hear from UK Sport and British Triathlon about their environmental sustainability journey, from inception to published strategy. Gain insight into the benefits of collaborating to advance respective environmental sustainability strategies, access key learnings about what certain organisations would now do differently and hear about the process and benefit of signing up to the UN Sports for Climate Action Framework.
Questions that will be answered during the session:
What are the key learnings for NSO’s embarking on the sustainability journey
What sustainability strategy elements could be included beyond the carbon emissions reduction commitments
How organisations are working together (British Triathlon and UK Sport) to advance their environmental sustainability strategies
When you should sign up to UN Sports for Climate Action Framework, and the internal process to make that decision
