The new Carbon Literacy for Museums Toolkit has been developed by The Carbon Literacy Project and Museum Development North West, in collaboration with Museum Development England, museums and Julie’s Bicycle.
Museums have an important role to play in tackling the climate crisis – not only by reducing the emissions created within the museum sector, but also as storytellers, stewards, and trusted public institutions with the power to influence others. To help museums accelerate their action against climate change, the Carbon Literacy for Museums Toolkit has been developed as part of the Roots & Branches project.
To launch the Toolkit, The Carbon Literacy Project and Museum Development North West are hosting a webinar on Monday 24th January from 2pm to 3.30pm. Join us to find out more about the Toolkit, how to use it and how to access Carbon Literacy training through your Museum Development Provider. You will also hear from museums who will share their experiences of Carbon Literacy training.

The Toolkit, supported using public funding by the National Lottery through Arts Council England, will enable museums to access Carbon Literacy within their organisations.
All museums in the UK will be able to access the Toolkit from the 24th January via The Carbon Literacy Project website to roll it out in their organisations.
