**About Our Opportunity**:
The Equity and Engagement Coordinator works with a team of professionals to implement the climate change plan and coordinate future strategic climate action. Reporting to the Manager of the Climate Plan and Strategic Action team, the Equity and Engagement Coordinator is responsible for supporting external partners and other provincial government departments in developing and implementing programs, policies and regulations that have been outlined in the climate change plan.

**Primary Accountabilities**:
This position will support the implementation of the province’s new climate change plan.

This includes the development of programs, initiatives, and policies to support communities in acting on their climate priorities. This position will help advise the department on policies that relate to socioeconomic issues such as environmental racism, systemic barriers to climate action, inequitable access to resources such as funding and government programming, and inclusive education and engagement under the climate change plan. This position will also support annual evaluation and reporting on key progress indicators and outcomes related to the climate change plan. This position will support public engagement and specific engagement with youth and marginalized and racialized communities to better understand priorities and to support current and future climate action.

Within this ever-evolving field, you will lead through change and be willing to adjust quickly, as needed. This work requires innovative approaches to capacity building, community engagement, education and information sharing to ensure that engagement is inclusive, and that the information is trusted.

In this position, you will work creatively with community-based partners to effectively monitor and respond to climate change mitigation and adaptation trends and work to ensure that the climate plan continues to meet the needs of Nova Scotians. You will create an environment that promotes continuous learning and improvement by seeking feedback from your colleagues and being open to critiques that improve outcomes. You will coordinate climate action across external stakeholders and government departments and implement and report on the climate change goals that are outlined in the Environmental Goals and Climate Change Reduction Act and mandate letter commitments.
