Imagine trying to protect a city from heatwaves or floods, but realizing the elderly or disabled are being left behind because they can't use the apps or tools provided. This work creates a better playbook for cities to make sure everyone, regardless of age or ability, is safe and included. It's like building a safety net that actually fits the people who need it most.
Cities often implement climate adaptation measures that ignore the specific needs of the elderly, disabled, and marginalized, leading to wasted investment and increased social vulnerability.
The project is designing inclusive strategies and co-creative digital activities to ensure vulnerable groups are included in climate resilience planning.
If you are a municipal consultancy firm dealing with inequitable city planning — this project developed inclusive strategies that ensure local authority investments actually reach the most vulnerable groups. This reduces social risk and improves the effectiveness of climate adaptation projects.
If you are a civic technology developer dealing with low adoption rates among elderly or disabled users — this project developed co-creative digital activities that increase participation in climate action. This allows for the creation of tools that are actually usable by marginalized groups.
If you are a climate risk assessment firm dealing with inaccurate vulnerability data — this project developed risk management strategies prioritizing marginalized social groups. This provides a more accurate map of social risk for urban resilience planning.
Based on available project data, no specific pricing or cost structures are provided as the project is in the signed phase.
Based on available project data, the project focuses on local authorities and city-level sustainable innovations, suggesting a scale applicable to urban governance.
Based on available project data, there is no mention of specific IP or licensing agreements; these are typically defined in the consortium agreement.
The project aligns with the EU Mission Adaptation to Climate Change, focusing on inclusive adaptation and just transitions.
The project period runs from 2025-06-01 to 2029-05-31.
The consortium is heavily weighted toward public and non-profit entities, with 14 'Other' organizations and 9 academic/research partners. With only 2 industry partners and a low industry ratio of 8%, the project is primarily driven by social and academic goals rather than commercial product development, though the presence of 3 SMEs suggests some capacity for agile tool creation.
