For Staff

The Alberta Climate Leaders Staff Peer Network enables staff to connect, learn, and collaborate effectively on climate action. It is open to staff from municipalities, Indigenous communities, and Indigenous government organizations.

Initially, the network will cover a wide range of climate action topics covering mitigation and adaptation. In alignment with the Alberta Climate Leaders portfolio, The Playbook guides the scope of network content, supported by peer examples and guest speakers.

A team from CEA and MCCAC serve as network facilitators, administering the Staff Peer Network. Network co-chairs provide strategic and delivery support to ensure that content best addresses participants’ needs.

Network sessions will include practical tools for applying climate action in Alberta, and build interpersonal skills to communicate and build relationships with residents and stakeholders in the context of local climate action.

Evolving Focus

As the needs of our members change, the network’s focus may evolve. This could lead to the creation of new, specialized networks or more action-oriented initiatives. Join us to collaborate and drive impactful climate action in your community.
