A two day Transition Towns course, to be held as a residential (stay overnight) at The Crossing, near Bermagui.
On completing the course participants will:
have a clear understanding of the context for transition towns, and the transformational possibilities that arise from the twin challenges of climate change and peak oil
know what the TT model is – including an in depth look at the key 12 steps, from inspiration, setting up the initiating group, all the way to having active and effective working groups
have experienced a joint visioning process
understand how to organise effective meetings such as public talks, open space days and small theme working groups
understand the purpose and principles of an Energy Descent Plan
have formed useful contacts with other Transition initiatives, and met some of those involved in the Totnes project and Transition Network
have a plan of action for themselves and their locality
This training will follow the transition model in paying attention to both the outer work and the inner work necessary for a successful transition process. It will be a participatory process, with delegates invited to share their own experience and learn from the many different transition initiatives represented at each course.
