ZCC Webinar | Influencing decarbonisation policy and practice

Wed 4 February, 2026 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm

Join this webinar to explore the findings and recommendations from the Influencing decarbonisation policy and practice briefing paper, which has been developed by Futureproof Cumbria, the University of Cumbria and other ZCCP partners.

  • Explore ways to influence policy and practice at local, regional and national governance levels
  • Understand how recommendations from the briefing paper can be realised in Cumbria
  • Hear insights from partners and guests experienced in advocating for policy change through collaborative frameworks

 

This is the first in a series of four webinars based on the four briefing papers developed by Zero Carbon Cumbria. The papers focus on the most significant barriers to accelerating decarbonisation, and identify practical steps to overcome these barriers and enable scalable, long-term solutions for a net zero Cumbria by 2037.
