Working Session: Finding Your People Online
About the event
For many of us, clients and job opportunities come from strong relationships, but it can be a challenge to find sustainability work when the community is so spread out. Particularly if you don’t live in a major city or sustainability center, an online presence may be your best bet at finding your space in the sustainability world. Having a strong community online gives you more opportunities, places to learn and grow, and people to support you.
Learning Objectives
- Feel confident developing an online presence to secure your place in the community
- Understand how to actually use online tools and platforms
- Balance on and offline community
