Learning networks

Authorities and city-regions shouldn’t face this challenge alone. We know that strong networks are essential for turning bold plans into real-world change. That’s why we’ve created a host of regional learning hubs connecting councils, communities and businesses. These hubs currently focus on creating energy-efficient homes, engaging communities in climate action, and using nature to defend against climate impacts like flooding and heatwaves.
