Mobilising Community Action

Tender description

Throughout 2021, WWF-UK - in collaboration with the National Lottery Climate Action Fund [NLCAF] - will be working to engage and support new and diverse audiences in 5 key cities across the UK - Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow, Manchester and Sheffield. In the lead up to COP26 in Glasgow at the end of 2021 [and beyond], it is critical that we engage, spark interest in and support a diverse range of audiences in these areas if we are to effectively transition to a green economy. For this project to be a success, we need to be present in these cities to effectively engage not only the target* audiences - diverse audiences who may not have engaged in climate actions in the past - but also local community groups, campaigners/movement builders and local institutions.
