Community Bulk Buys - Sustainable Technology

Interest in sustainable technology is on the rise however many potential customers resist uptake because they lack the knowledge or confidence to select a high quality, appropriate product.

From Solar PV to electric bikes, MEFL have done the hard work in setting up a successful process for community bulk buys. Learn how to roll out a successful bulk buy , engage your community and avoid potential pitfalls.

The urgency around climate change is palpable in the community however, running successful programs that genuinely engage participants, are cost effective and reduce greenhouse emissions are difficult to initiate and to maintain.

This interactive workshop will present a practitioners point of view on how to work with community members to run successful projects which address everyday behaviour while putting in place the building blocks for resilience to climate change.
