The committee of BEAM Mitchell Environment Group resolved at the end of 2022 to revise our priorities and goals for the coming years.
We're really happy to share with our members and supporters our updated vision, principles and goals - READ THE PLAN HERE
This guiding plan was put together after we surveyed our wider membership for their input, and held a facilitated planning day to review our vision, principles and goals. We then held a final workshop to bring all the threads together. The outcome of this process is this plan and its six goals that provide focus for our group’s work
The timeframe of this plan is five years, from 2023-2028. We will review the plan during this period, with the aim to revise on (at least) an annual basis.
