Building Climate Action Locally: Tools from the CCAT Project Wed. 2nd Feb. 2022, 9.30am -12.30pm - online
Tuesday, 18 January, 2022
Coastal Communities Adapting Together (CCAT) will hold its project closure event on 2nd Feb. 2022 to showcase the tools developed during the past two years. CCAT was a pilot project part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund through the Ireland Wales Cooperation Programme. University College Dublin led the project in partnership with Fingal County Council and University College Cork in Ireland and Cardiff University, Pembrokeshire Coastal Forum and the Port of Milford Haven in Wales. The project aimed to support coastal communities in Fingal and Pembrokeshire to understand climate change and how to adapt.
The project developed a range of tools for engaging with local authorities, educators, young people, community groups, policymakers and academics. This showcase event will highlight a selection of these tools such as geodesign workshops, educational resources, participatory mapping projects, academic research and online events. The project partners will explore the opportunities and challenges of these tools, the impact of COVID-19 on the project and future plans for their use.
The programme and details of guest speakers will be available shortly on the CCAT website.
