The Port Phillip EcoCentre in Melbourne, Australia recognizes their role in increasing awareness for climate change and the need for dramatic action to reduce carbon emissions within the next decade. To assist in the EcoCentre’s strategic planning for the next three years, our team has completed an analysis of their strategic plan through archival analysis of their core documents, interviews of nine key partners, a staff wellbeing survey, and a review of program survey data. Additionally, to aid the EcoCentre in their efforts to prevent irreparable climate change damage, we developed a novel scorecard for evaluating carbon emissions reductions for organizational programs.
