Practical
How can you help speed up the transition?
During this two-day climate bootcamp, we focus on the climate crisis and what steps we can take as a company, NGO, city or individual to accelerate the transition. To this end, nine experts will take a closer look at the most important impact sectors: energy, food, mobility and buildings. And climate scientist Professor Wim Thiery provides an up-to-date overview of the climate problem.
Discover during this bootcamp :
- How the energy, food, buildings and mobility sectors are reaching their limits
- How you, as a company or organization, can create value or be valuable from a meaningful goal while respecting the planetary boundaries
- A transition is underway and what process is associated with it
- And so much more!
Are you someone who brings about change? And do you want to take the most advanced knowledge needed for a transition with you as inspiration? Then this bootcamp is perfect for you!
This interactive two-day event is limited to 20 participants. So be quick!
