How can environmental practitioners deepen engagement practices to create long-lasting change within communities and organisations?

Emerging psycho-social research points to the powerful influence of emotional and often unconscious responses to today’s ecological realities. 

Associate member Olive Dempsey shares findings from her research that outline: 

1. A Framework on the Psychology of Environmental Leadership that identifies a set ofDefensive Practices, Emotional Complications and Core Needs at play among those we seek to engage in pro-environmental change.

2. A set of recommendations for holistic and emotionally Intelligent engagement programs that can be applied across multiple sectors to enhance programs and practices.
