SUSTAINABILITY CHALLENGE COMES TO PITTWATER

The Sustainability Challenge is a revolutionary new training and auditing tool that will assist organisations and communities in the shift to long-term sustainability.



Ian Cleland, from Toward Sustainable Futures is offering businesses the opportunity to take the Sustainability Challenge when they attend the Sustainability Conference in May 21st & 22nd.


Transitioning an organisational culture from short term “take, make, waste” thinking to one of long term sustainability is becoming a survival imperative for organisations operating in a world of increasingly scarce resources. Leveraging the successful Challenge methodology, the Sustainability Challenge will develop essential understanding and capability around complex issues such as emissions reduction, sustainable supply chains and social responsibility whilst auditing business culture’s attitudes towards sustainability.
The Sustainability Challenge conference is aimed at all people in small to medium enterprises who want to find way to make their business more profitable, efficient, effective and sustainable.

  • Ann Maree Huxluy MOSS (Models of Success and Sustainability ) Sustainability Challenge
