Accenture will help you to start a new project in your community. This €35,000 challenge is dedicated to helping you build thriving and sustainable communities wherever you live across the island of Ireland.
Community Fridges are accessible public spaces where local businesses and residents share surplus food that would otherwise go to waste, creating stronger communities whilst reducing environmental impact.
Plant fruit trees in public spaces to provide free food for residents while bringing neighbours together through collaborative environmental action that creates lasting community connections.
Transform your local area into a thriving habitat for bees and pollinators through simple, community-led actions that reduce mowing, plant native flowers, and create nesting spaces
Create a densely planted 25-square-metre native forest in your community with expert guidance, bringing biodiversity and natural connection to urban spaces through collaborative workshops.
Organise a free meeting place in your community to repair things instead of throwing them away.
“The Accenture Sustainability Challenge is an opportunity for individuals to come together to create more resilient, engaged and sustainable communities, while accelerating the transition to a greener economy at a national and local level. Communities hold the power to be catalysts for real change and, as a business operating in Ireland for over 50 years, we believe that one of the most important things we can do is engage and support the communities in which we live and work. As a company, we are making sustainability one of our greatest responsibilities, embedding it by design into our core business—into everything we do and for everyone we work with. To accelerate the change needed to transform our societies and economies, and to protect the planet, we need new levels of collaboration. We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to help local leaders play a vital part in protecting, enhancing and restoring our natural environment countrywide.”
