Net Zero Community of Practice
At the EDAS conference in May 2021, we committed to establishing a Community of Practice that enables economic development actors to become climate leaders.
Building on the knolwedge gained from the COP26 Conference in 2021, there is no better time to continue to the Net Zero Community of Practice.
The Community of Practice will encourage bold action in place of rhetoric. It will focus on how organisations are reaching for Net Zero within the discipline of economic development, as opposed to reiterating policy and progress.
Below you will find event summaries of events 1 and 2 in the Community of Practice series ‘Measuring and Reducing Carbon Impact’ and ‘Stimulating Green, Just, and Nature-Based Jobs’. You can also take a read of our thought leadership blogs.
