Social Inclusion

Climate awareness

Understanding climate change is a starting point for participation. We make climate issues and solutions more accessible, helping people connect the transition to net zero with their daily lives and communities.

Areas of focus

Communicating climate issues in clear, accessible language.
Connecting global climate goals with local experiences.
Sharing practical examples of climate action.
Creating opportunities for learning and discussion.

Community participation

Climate action should reflect the experiences of the people it affects. We bring communities into the conversation and support opportunities to shape and participate in local climate initiatives.

Areas of focus

Creating spaces for community dialogue and participation.
Connecting local knowledge with climate initiatives.
Supporting collaboration with community organisations.
Sharing community experiences and perspectives.

Encourages participation in climate action among youth, women, LGBTQ+ people, and other communities. Through community activities and university partnerships, RTNZ makes net-zero knowledge more accessible and creates opportunities for diverse groups to help shape an inclusive transition.
