Imagine trying to renovate a whole city while the residents are arguing about where the new pipes should go. This project figures out how to get people and politicians to actually agree on climate changes without causing social chaos. It's like creating a guidebook for leaders to make green decisions that the public will actually support.
Companies and governments face intense public backlash and political instability when implementing necessary but unpopular climate policies. This creates a 'green lash' that stalls environmental progress and increases investment risk.
A bespoke analytical tool (D2.1) and the RETOOL Climate Democracy Dataset (M2) to track and improve public engagement in climate policy.
If you are a developer dealing with local community protests against new installations — this project developed a climate democracy dataset that helps identify how to better engage the public. This reduces project delays caused by social unrest.
If you are a consultancy dealing with clients who struggle to pass green legislation — this project developed a set of insights on innovative democratic practices. This allows you to advise clients on how to build lasting public consensus.
If you are a software provider dealing with low engagement in digital voting or town halls — this project developed a new analytical tool for democratic governance. This helps you build features that align with how people actually interact with climate policy.
Based on available project data, no pricing is mentioned as the project focuses on creating open-access datasets.
The project provides analytical tools and datasets rather than industrial hardware, making it scalable across different European administrative regions.
Based on available project data, the project emphasizes the creation of open-access datasets for public and policy use.
It provides a bridge between academic research and policymakers to help implement climate transitions through stronger democratic governance.
The project runs from 2024-02-01 to 2027-01-31, with initial analytical results already delivered in the first reporting period.
The consortium is heavily academic, consisting of 7 universities and 1 research organization, which suggests a strong theoretical foundation. However, it includes 1 industry partner and 2 SMEs, providing a necessary link to practical application. With 10 partners across 8 countries, the project has a broad European reach, which is critical for testing governance models across different legal and political systems.
