What we are doing
The Communities for Local Green Deals - COM4LGD project recognizes the intersection of the climate and environmental crisis with the social and political polarisation that EU citizens are currently faced with. The innovative solution we propose for a sustainable, just, democratic and inclusive future for the EU is a focus on local community development, climate and sustainability action, community organising, advocacy, and cooperation between citizens and local governments covering all 27 member states. The project consists of debates, trainings and outreach activities targeted at decision makers in line with the ambition above, to address political disillusionment, polarization, and apathy amidst social and ecological crises. This is therefore very relevant to local and regional governments. One event specifically provides a training for 25-50 local government participants on how to empower local governance for just sustainability transitions.
