Effective internal communication ensures that all members of the institution are aware of its climate commitments and understand their role in achieving decarbonisation targets. Employee engagement is essential, as many sources of emissions are directly linked to staff behaviour, such as mobility patterns, energy consumption, use of digital equipment and waste management. Institutions also have a key role to play in educating and training their employees about the challenges of climate change and the solutions available. Sharing progress reports, celebrating achievements and promoting a culture of environmental responsibility throughout the organisation are essential to maximise the impact of climate action.   

2050Today Support

2050Today can provide awareness-raising material and conduct research to analyse employee behaviour in specific areas (conference-related mobility, for example). In addition, 2050Today can organise specific events or workshops to raise awareness, helping institutions to promote a culture of climate-conscious behaviour internally and beyond.

Engaging external partners amplifies the impact of climate initiatives and encourages collaboration towards common sustainable development goals. This step involves informing partners of the institution’s efforts, inviting them to participate in projects and creating opportunities for joint action that accelerate decarbonisation.
