Last week the MPEG Community came together to share their experiences and top tips for running a successful local MP Engagement Group.
In addition to the resources we provided, we heard from long time group leaders Belinda and Helen from the South-East Naarm/Melbourne MPEG, Eezu who has run her Eora/Sydney group for the last year, and other climate leaders from QLD and Victoria.
It was a really positive session, with ideas flying around the room for how to:
- engage best with different MPs
- improve attendance at your group meetings
- set a simple yet effective agenda, and
- welcome new members by creating an exciting space for them to flourish.
The MPEGs team hopes to welcome 5 new groups around Australia to our community this year! So let us know if you want to join us in taking impactful action on climate change — we've got all the resources and know-how to get you on your way.
If you're a visual person, you may appreciate this terrific graphic representation of the session that participant Angela shared with us.
