Darebin recognises the world is in a state of climate emergency. We are involved in a range of initiatives to save energy and address climate change. Find out more about what we are doing and how you can get involved.
We are committed to embedding the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into our planning, including Goal 13: Climate action.
In the Darebin Libraries and Learning Strategy 2020-24, our second goal is to foster ‘a thriving and resilient community’ by increasing opportunities for lifelong learning and social connection. One of the outcomes within this goal is to ‘help the Darebin community meet the challenges of the climate emergency’. Our plan is to collaboratively develop services, collections and programs to increase community understanding and knowledge to meet the challenges of the climate emergency.
Through these actions we support Council’s goals outlined in Darebin's Climate Emergency Plan 2024-2030.
If you’d like to learn more about the current services, collections and programs supporting this goal, please give our friendly team a call on 1300 655 355. We also encourage you to check out Climate Change and Action where you’ll find helpful resources and tools, and to regularly check our events calendar for any upcoming activities, talks or workshops relating to environmental protection and the climate emergency.
