if you seek to make global change, you can start by transitioning your community.
Transition Town of York Region is hosts a provincewide training conference this weekend for those interested in supporting or creating a local chapter of Transition Town, a grassroots movement started in the United Kingdom to combat oil demand, climate change and economic instability.
The conference will teach you to set up your own Transition Town movement and how to get the ball rolling when it comes to making changes, Transition Town York Region founder and conference organizer Sue McKee said.
“Our concept is not to wait for someone else to fix things,” she said. “We need to step up together and create leadership and initiatives we can follow. There are so many roles to play, but transition is proactive, not reactive.”
You will learn from a global curriculum designed for Transition Town that focuses on the drivers behind the organization’s concept – energy, the environment and the economy – and what’s needed to create a sustainable and resilient future, Ms McKee said.
“This is all about creating a vision for a positive future,” the East Gwillimbury resident said. “There is a wealth of knowledge to help make transition personal for everyone.”
