GROWING ROOTS: Strategy design

4. Goals and activities

Design thinking, when integrated with ecological thinking, can help you create sustainable and environmentally friendly goals and activities. 

Activities Planning:

To plan activities that support your goals and align with ecological principles takie into account:

• Sourcing Sustainable Materials: Ensure that any materials used are sustainably sourced, recycled, or upcycled.
• Minimizing Waste: Incorporate processes that reduce waste and encourage recycling or composting.
• Energy Efficiency: Optimize energy usage during using electronic devices and transport or travel.
• Lifecycle Analysis: Consider the entire lifecycle of the activity or project, from the idea to the celebration and evaluation, and minimize negative environmental impacts.
• Green Partnerships: Collaborate with organizations or suppliers that share your ecological values and are - preferably - from your region or locality.
• Educational Initiatives: Educate networkers and participants about the ecological benefits of your projects or goals you want to reach.
