CLEANCULTURES

At the core of our approach, we use cases in different countries and contexts to explore how, at neighborhood level, new perspectives and solutions for existing local climate-relevant problems can be developed via novel learning and exchange processes. We set unusual, creative thematic intervention impulses to provide neighborhoods not only with facts but to trigger their emotions and attitudes, and stimulate the co-creation of cultures/narratives of change. This learning process at micro level allows a better understanding of small-scale societal systems dynamics, in terms of climate change awareness, empowerment and decision making in transforming processes. On meso- and macro-levels the project produces a generic transferable methodology for stimulating such processes in other neighborhoods; and a set of recommendations for climate policy-making.
