Designing a Sustainable Future

with Charley Haward

Introduction to Transition Towns and Cities
Living More Sustainably

People are getting more concerned about climate change and fossil fuels running out. Many now want to ‘Transition’ towards living more sustainably. But their desires are not really reflected within wider society. The ‘Transition Network’ offers practical, positive steps for whole communities to work together to use energy wisely and create a more positive life for all.

Charley Haward is an educator with over twenty years experience. As a ‘Transition’ facilitator, she is a co-founder of Transition Brighton & Hove and is actively involved with local Transition projects in Brighton and Lewes. She has studied Permaculture with Ben Law and applies sustainable principles in her work as an artist and designer.

Introduction to Transition Towns and Cities

‘Transition’ means we need to learn how to redesign our local communities – creating a vision of how we can transform our lives for a sustainable future. This workshop is inspired by examples of sustainable urban design and Transition Town projects. We will be exploring how the Transition process can empower us to co-create a future vision and action plan for the people of Brighton and Hove.

Living More Sustainably

‘Transition’ aims to empower people to envision a positive and practical future for themselves and their community. This workshop looks at the principles for sustainable living offered by Transition culture and Permaculture. We will be using examples from current practice in key areas such as buildings, food, energy and transport to develop visions for transition towards a more sustainable future.
