Description
🌍 Cities: Frontline of the Climate Crisis, but Are They Ready to Lead Inclusive Climate Action?
Together with a network of IDG Hubs, we are co-creating a prototype that integrates sustainable development, inner development, and systems thinking to create an engagement capacity for inclusive and climate-resilient cities.
Join our kick off conversation on December 18th online to uncover why building Social Resilience Capacities matters and explore:
🔑 What are the key enablers for cities to become islands of coherent climate action?
We will delve into real-world examples to uncover the enablers and barriers to collective action that drive impactful urban climate solutions: https://www.linkedin.com/company/103600145/admin/dashboard/
🏙️ Over half of humanity resides in cities, where 75% of carbon emissions are generated. Fragile urban regions bear the brunt of climate impacts, disproportionately affecting marginalized groups—ethnic minorities, the displaced, and women.
It’s time for bold, inclusive action:
🌱 Centering just transition strategies
🌱 Supporting low-income communities
🌱 Investing in workforce development
🌱 Tackling inequality and poverty
Let’s reimagine cities as hubs of resilience and equity—leading the way in transformative climate solutions. 💡✨
Learnings
Cities and subnational leaders, on the frontlines of the climate crisis, are stepping up with accountability, collaboration, and action—qualities missing from recent COP talks.
It’s time to put cities in charge!
Join us to explore how urban complexities can be transformed into resilient, innovative hubs. Discover inspiring, community-led solutions driven by citizens, youth, and the power of art in collaborative innovation—and learn how the Covenant of Mayors creates multistakeholder spaces enabling local climate action.
As cities face rising temperatures and frequent heatwaves, the conversation places urban citizens at the heart of climate action, bringing together stakeholders to prioritize community-driven adaptation and resilience to urban heat.
Aligned with the Pact’s themes, it focuses on:
✨ Cities as Climate Actors: Urban centers’ critical role in systemic resilience and adapting to cascading climate impacts.
✨ Community & Capacity-Building: The importance of inner development and collective leadership for climate action.
✨ Diverse Vulnerabilities & Equitable Solutions: Addressing varied exposures and promoting tailored risk communication and equitable access to resources.
✨ Bridging Knowledge to Action: Multi-stakeholder and community-led approaches to climate action initiatives
