Understand our structured, methodological approach to generating action on climate change.
The Climate Action Unit delivers threeÌýtypes of projects. Our projects:
- BuildÌýthe capacity and skills for climate action in influential people and organisations
- BringÌýtogether professionals from different sectors to collaborate and co-produce solutions to systems-change challenges
- SupportÌýprofessionals from one sector to understand the needs of 'end users' in other sectors
Our method
1. We prioritise outcomes first, mechanisms second
![outcomes](/climate-action-unit/sites/climate_action_unit/files/styles/large_image/public/image_0.png?itok=Uo4XSbSr)
We start with clarifying the outcomes that our partners or clients want to achieve, only then do we design the mechanisms to deliver the required outcomes.Ìý
2. We deliver interventions that generate data
![Interventions interventions](/climate-action-unit/sites/climate_action_unit/files/styles/large_image/public/interventions2.png?itok=pJYRMeXa)
Our interventions often contain interactive, participatory sessions and workshops where we bring stakeholders from different communities together. The interactions we set up between people generate 'golden nuggets' - information and insights whichÌý radically alter the way our clients see the challenges they are trying to resolve.
3. We consolidate learnings and leave a legacy
![Learnings Learningprocess](/climate-action-unit/sites/climate_action_unit/files/styles/large_image/public/learnings.png?itok=qzvCET9y)
After the interventions and data analysis of the materials, we extract the generalisable learningsÌý²¹²Ô»å embed these in the practices of our client organisations, and in our own working practices.
How we help organisations &Ìýprofessionals
We work with a wide range of organisations that are keen to drive forward progress on climate change, but find themselves facing people challenges. (Our current projects can be found on our Climate Risk, Climate Action and Climate Stories pages)
On a case-by-case basis, we design and run tailored interventions to bridge disciplines and sectors. We help fix communication problems, equip people with leadership skills, and dismantleÌýbarriers to action.
