CLIMATE CHANGE LEADERSHIP WORKSHOP IN HANOI, VIETNAM

Workshop title: Developing climate solutions - Entrepreneurial approaches to addressing climate challenges and opportunities
Date: 22 – 26 November 2010
Venue: V-Resort, Hoa Binh, Vietnam

Climate security is one of the main challenges of the 21st century. The subject has been rapidly moving up the political and economic agendas over recent years. Responding to this challenge, the British Council has established Climate Generation, a climate initiative in the East Asia region which aims to build a sustainable network of “emerging leaders” who are committed to taking action to limiting the contribution they and society make to greenhouse gas emissions.

As part of our programme, a series of workshops has been organised in the region. This time, the workshop “DEVELOPING CLIMATE SOLUTIONS, Entrepreneurial approaches to addressing climate challenges and opportunities”  will be held near Hanoi, Vietnam from 22-26 November. And we are looking for young people aged 20 – 30 years old who have demonstrable leadership qualities and an interest in environmental issues, especially climate change. Although applications are welcome from all sectors, the training will have a special focus on business and social enterprise and we encourage participants with these backgrounds.

Please have a look at the Terms of Reference which clearly lay out the requirements of the workshop and what we expect from the participants.

If you think you have what it takes to be a climate leader and are interested in attending our workshop, please complete the attached application form and return it to Duong.NguyenThuy@britishcouncil.org.vn before 29 October 2010.

* Note: Travel and accommodation costs will be covered by the British Council.
