Conference or masterclass: what's the difference?
The conferences and masterclasses offered by Act! with Surfrider share the same goal of raising environmental awareness, but differ in format and level of interactivity.
These sessions can be delivered via video conference or on-site, for audiences of all sizes. Formats range from 30 minutes to 1.5 hours, in-person or online. Conferences can stand alone or be combined with other activities like an environmental quiz or collaborative fresk.
Surfrider’s masterclasses and conferences cover a broad spectrum of environmental issues, tailored to your internal priorities. Here are some examples from the 15 modules available:
Hosting a CSR conference at your company is an effective way to initiate or reinforce employee awareness of ecological issues. These formats are designed to deliver clear, up-to-date scientific content, based on the expertise of Surfrider Foundation Europe. By involving specialists in climate, plastic pollution, or environmental health, you provide your teams with a structured and accessible learning experience.
This helps employees better grasp CSR topics and contributes to building a corporate culture focused on ecological transition. Conferences can also serve as an introduction to a broader awareness journey, complementing participatory workshops, litter clean-ups, or professional training on environmental issues.
Our masterclasses and conferences are powerful tools to introduce or deepen understanding of environmental issues related to the Ocean—and more broadly, to the ecological transition. By integrating them into your corporate events, you provide your teams with a clear, accessible, and scientifically grounded perspective on major environmental challenges. These formats act as a springboard for engagement: they help structure a CSR strategy, launch awareness programs, or fuel internal reflections around your environmental priorities.
Our content goes far beyond Ocean-related issues. It also covers climate change, coastal risks, plastic pollution, recycling challenges, and the links between human health and natural ecosystems. This diversity allows you to tailor topics precisely to your company’s awareness objectives.
Each module is designed to provide a clear understanding of a key environmental issue. With 15 topics available, you can build a coherent cycle of sessions or integrate a masterclass into a broader learning journey.
We offer two duration formats:
These sessions can be delivered in person, via videoconference, or in a hybrid format. They can easily be integrated into your internal events, CSR seminars, strategic meetings, or dedicated awareness sessions.
Each conference or masterclass is grounded in solid scientific foundations and delivered in an accessible format. The speaker tailors their message to the audience—avoiding unnecessary jargon—while providing targeted knowledge supported by concrete examples and data from sources such as the IPCC, IPBES, and Surfrider Foundation.
As a complement to other initiatives, conferences help structure your internal awareness efforts. They easily fit into a customized CSR journey or an ongoing awareness program. They also align with CSR training requirements linked to your company’s legal or organizational obligations.
The presentation lasts approximately 1.5 hours and can be adjusted according to your availability. The preferred time slot for our participating businesses is generally during lunch break, between noon and 2pm.
There is no limit in participants for this format, unless you wish to book one of our conference rooms with limited capacity.
