Sustainable Mann Workshops return this January

UNESCO Biosphere Isle of Man’s Sustainable Mann Workshops return in January 2026 with a fresh line-up of practical, solution-focused workshops designed to help organisations thrive in a changing world. 

As we step into a new year, it’s the perfect time to set fresh goals. Sustainable Mann offers an opportunity to start 2026 with purpose – building a roadmap towards a more sustainable and resilient future. Whether you’re just beginning your sustainability journey or looking to take it further, these workshops provide practical tools and inspiration to make real progress.

Delivered by Earthscope Isle of Man, the workshops will run 09:00-12:00 weekly from 13 January 2026 for seven weeks, covering everything organisations need to know about climate, nature and sustainability – and how to turn knowledge into action. The workshops this year are: 

• Climate and Nature and the Risks and Opportunities
• Nature's Value: how business help nature to thrive
• Energy & Efficiencies
• Comms and PR: kickstart your sustainability comms
• Circular Economy & Waste Solutions
• Legal and Fiduciary, Governance and Reporting
• Innovation and Future of Work

Organisations that attend six or more sessions will earn the UNESCO Biosphere Sustainable Mann accreditation and certificate – a trusted way to showcase your commitment to sustainability and to our Island’s Biosphere values. 
By helping organisations reduce their impact and embrace innovation, these workshops strengthen the Island’s resilience and sense of place – ensuring our environment and economy can flourish side by side, strengthening our Biosphere Island and its communities.  

This year’s programme is supported by headline sponsor Zurich Isle of Man, alongside Nedgroup Investments Isle of Man and Nicola Bowker & Co – all of whom have attended Sustainable Mann in previous years and continue to champion sustainability. 

Past attendees have called the workshops ‘informative and positive,’ ‘a great way to network with like-minded individuals,’ and ‘well-structured but with a relaxed atmosphere.’
