The Academy of Change is a pioneering capacity building programme on sustainable behaviour change designed for future leaders working on climate change and sustainability, starting with the NGO sector. The Academy was created in 2017 by the CSCP in partnership with Behaviour Change, funded by the KR Foundation to address the need of NGOs worldwide to better understand behavioural knowledge and be able to unlock its practical application in real-life interventions.

Call for Collabortion

This challenges all of us to shape this new playing field to enable a good life for everyone. There are great opportunities for organisations as well as for sustainability, but with them, we also face new responsibilities.
