Today’s session is on wrapping up and looking forward. It’s the final session! Since you’ve gotten this far,
you deserve a huge congratulations. Good on you. We hope it’s been rewarding, and we’re very interested
in your feedback on the program.

Now that you’ve completed the past six parts of the Transition Streets program, this session is all about
evaluating what worked, celebrating your achievements, and deciding as a group whether you’d like to
continue meeting and working on this stuff together.

But First! (5 minutes)
Discuss how you have all got on with your actions from the Transport chapter.

• What have you achieved?
• What was hard?

• What do you still want to get done?

Activity 1:
Looking back on what you’ve achieved (20 mins)

Spend the next 10–20 minutes, take turns answering the following questions:

1 What do you feel you’ve achieved through this program that you’re most proud of?
2 What do you think were the factors that helped support your achievement?

3 What did you find most difficult?

4 What have you learned?
5 What are you hoping to do in the future?

Activity 2:
Final evaluation (20 mins)

At the first session you calculated your ecological footprint, using SEE-Change’s online ecological footprint
calculator.
Now that you’ve run through all of the sessions in this workbook, this is the perfect time to complete the
ecological footprint calculator again, to see for yourself what has changed. Take turns spending the next
few minutes completing the online calculator here. Can you remember your results from when you first
completed it? What’s changed?
If you haven’t covered it in your discussion today already, briefly discuss what you think of the Transition
Streets program. Then individually, take a few minutes to complete the Program Feedback Form here. It
should only take 5 minutes.

NOTE: By filling out the ecological footprint calculator at the start and end of the program, along with the
program feedback form, you are giving The Neighbourhood Effect and SEE-Change invaluable information
that we can use to improve the program for future Transition Streeters. Thank you!
