Communities for Climate Change Action (Co-Adapt)
The goal of the project is to develop a participation tool for climate change action. The tool will facilitate climate adaptation and emission reductions in cities in Poland.
The project looks at strategies to overcome barriers to activity and grassroots participation, and we place emphasis on finding innovative designs for applied research on climate change action.
The project will help to strengthen resilience and integrate more people into participatory processes in urban communities, which can strengthen the cities' ability to adapt. The need for adaptation to climate change is increasing, also in cities.
The tool uses methods that are called "serious gaming" and will open up to experiment with strategies and solutions to climate problems. We would like to overcome the so-called "motivation gap" in the climate change adaptation and create a broad and large commitment to work with climate change action.
