Join our annual members’ conference to connect with friends old and new, for a weekend of sessions, talks and workshops exploring the skills and knowledge needed to take action for a safer, healthier fairer future.
This has been a big year for many reasons – from critical policy decisions and international climate meetings, to continued climate impacts, including the warmest January on record. Things can feel overwhelming. But where there is community, there is vision and hope.
For 50 years, the CAT community has faced challenges head-on. Through collaboration – sharing knowledge and skills – we find ways forward.
Please join us and celebrate the power of our CAT community through this much-loved annual gathering. Whether you join as a new member or have been part of CAT for decades, our members’ conference is a special time for gathering energy and building important new connections.
This year’s programme includes opportunities to:
- hear from our CAT graduates and students on their areas of expertise and unique journeys, from fungi research to home energy efficiency
- tour our sustainably managed woodlands
- explore the theme of climate justice at the heart of a fair, equitable transition
- learn about ecology and our food system, and the relationship between our crops and our planet
- enjoy hands-on activities in the gardens and with sustainable building materials
- share and learn with fellow members, in an afternoon dedicated to your contributions and presentations.
There will also be plenty of time for relaxed conversations, drinks, a film screening and ceilidh dancing.
