I am looking for any information that people might know of regarding work that has been done looking at sustainable behaviours, pro-environmental behaviour change and Trade Union groups. This could be on a personal 'member' level, but am especially interested in group-level programs.
Would be very grateful for any pointers anyone has on this topic - I dont know whether anything has been done whatsoever!

Hi Adam,
You may want to contact the Labour Environmental Alliance in Vancouver. They have done a lot of work with trade unions through the connection with occupational health and safety.
Here is the link to their website:

Hi Adam,
Workers and Trade Unions are defined as a Major Group for progressing the outcomes of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED), a.k.a. Agenda 21. I have attached an assignment I wrote for my Masters of Sustainable Development. It discusses the key national and international sustainability issues and initiatives that affect this Major Group, concluding with recommendations for progressing Workers and Trade Union's goals for sustainable development into the future.
Hope it helps. At the very least you can pull some references from it! Good luck.
Kind regards,
Belinda
