Tell Your Story to Paris!

The Transition Network has launched a search for 21 inspiring stories to tell at the December COP21 conference. In December world leaders meet in Paris to negotiate a global climate treaty. Transition Network is planning to celebrate by creating a booklet, in many languages, telling the story of 21 diverse and amazing stories, as well as celebrating many more on our website over the next few months.

Wouldn't it be great if at least one of those stories was from a group in Nottinghamshire or Derbyshire? Take 10 minutes to tell them your story by 21st June and it might be!

Your story could be large or small. It could be a project or a process, a partnership that really worked, or a group that really made things happen. It could be of new community gardens created, events that had impact, imaginative ways of saving energy, of people connecting, learning and having fun together. It could be about stuff that was built, or relationships strengthened, things that increased the sense of resilience and wellbeing in your area. What would you like representatives at COP21 to hear? Stories that show that a positive way of living with less is already happening?  With your help the Transiton Network can infuse COP21 with a sense of what's possible.

Take a few minutes to fill in the simple form online and your story might be chosen.
