Terra Nova - Ready your not-for-profit for the Future

In partnership with Rātā Foundation, our Earth+ Resilience and Emissions Reduction programme has been designed to empower community organisations with the tools and know-how to take action towards creating an Earth-First future.

* Do you know you need to take action to address climate change but don’t know where to start?
* Do you want to strengthen your organisations’ planning and readiness for change?
* Do you want practical tools and support to measure, assess, and reduce your organisations’ environmental impact?
* Are you looking for achievable and actionable steps you can take today, which will make a positive difference for people and planet?

About the programme:

With the support of the Terra Nova team and other programme participants, you will be guided to identify how your organisation is uniquely placed to contribute to the wellbeing of people and planet, and the opportunities and obstacles to creating positive change.

The programme is accessible and suitable for everyone, from those just starting on the journey, to those who have steps in place but are looking to gain access to further resources. We know that every organisation’s capacity is different, so our support is available for you to utilise it when you need it until the end of 2025. This includes:

Access to a dedicated online community where you can connect with the Terra Nova team, other Rātā grantees and specialised partners. Ask questions, find resources and share your journey.
A series of online impact sessions to develop your knowledge and connect you with the expertise and support to tackle change in a range of impact areas.
Complementary access to the Cogo carbon emissions measurement tool, providing you the ability to measure your emissions impact, get advice on reduction strategies and communicate progress and results.
It begins with a 1.5 day workshop to kick things off.

By the end of the workshop, you’ll have:

An understanding of resilience and climate change as it relates to your organisation’s context.
Explored how to go about developing a climate/environmental policy statement and resilience plan for your organisation.

A snapshot of your carbon footprint and access to Cogo, an easy-to-use tool to measure your progress on emissions reduction.

Clear, actionable next steps on your resilience and climate journey and free-to-use practical tools and templates.
