CWC Community Work and Sustainable Development Subgroup

Membership of the CWC Community Work & Sustainable Development Subgroup is comprised of Community Workers and Environmentalists that share a commitment to developing a community response to the issues of sustainable development and climate change.

The main work of the CWC Community Work & Sustainable Development Subgroup is on a project to produce a Strategy Guide on Climate Change for community organisations to support and encourage them to respond to climate change. To inform this work, participative workshops were held in three regional locations. Using the scenarios approach to look into the future, these workshops allowed participants to become aware of the issues that may arise for them and decide how they could respond given their own capacity and needs. Regional workshops were held in Cork, Galway and Dublin. The report is currently in draft form and will be published in the autumn of 2009.

Seán Regan is the current Convener of the CWC Community Work & Sustainable Development Subgroup.
