Citizens together for climate adaptation

Summary

Adaptation AGORA, together with CLIMAS, I-CHANGE, PRO-CLIMATE, organizes “Citizens together for climate adaptation” a starting point to test new developed tools and effective methodologies for future scenario planning, to engage citizens in mapping local vulnerabilities and resources, to encourage citizens to report real-time climate-related challenges and to facilitate small group discussions to explore trade-offs in climate adaptation measures. 

he core mission of this collaboration is rooted in a fundamental truth: climate change and citizen engagement are deeply interconnected. Creating sustainable solutions demands widespread participation. Through focused discussions, we began the vital work of testing new tools for future scenario planning, engaging citizens in mapping local vulnerabilities and resources, and facilitating real-time reporting of climate-related challenges. 

This event successfully brought together citizens, civil society organizations, academics, experts, policymakers, and entrepreneurs also involving several Climate Pact Ambassadors. The commitment shown by every participant to explore the complex trade-offs in climate adaptation measures was inspiring. It underscored the crucial need for all key actors to collaborate in the co-design and co-creation of innovative, problem-focused adaptation solutions. 

Thank you for lending your voice and your critical thinking to this vital cause. Your engagement helps to serve as a bridge between local communities and global initiatives, empowering us all to advocate for policy changes and climate justice. We look forward to continuing this journey of co-creation with you as we translate these innovative approaches into lasting, positive change across Europe.
