Citizen engagement initiatives - registration tool |
Mapping citizen engagement initiatives in Europe on climate change adaptation
Background/Context
We are delighted to invite you to register a Citizen Engagement Initiative (CEI) in the forthcoming Digital AGORA online database. This mapping exercise is part of a European Commission-funded research project called AGORA that seeks to actively involve communities and regions in climate actions providing a comprehensive package of digital tools and co-developed frameworks (https://adaptationagora.eu/). The Digital AGORA will include a searchable database of adaptation-focussed CEIs around Europe, which we hope will facilitate knowledge sharing and will form the basis for our efforts to draw together the best practices on how to engage citizens in climate change adaptation themes.

Important Information
There is a very wide range of interpretations of Citizen Engagement Initiatives (CEIs), which are also sometimes known as Public Participation activities. We focus specifically on those participatory processes with citizens that are linked to matters of public concern on climate change adaptation and include any form of discursive interaction, such as talking, discussing, debating and deliberating.

How to include your CEI
This tool is designed to be manageable for data analysis and for searching for initiatives. Providing as much detail as possible will help us understand the universe of CEIs and help others to find your CEI. However, there may be sections of the tool that do not apply to your CEI. Please leave any non-applicable questions blank, and add any other information you think is relevant in the open field (the last question). On average, it takes around 10 minutes to add one CEI. We kindly ask that you add separate CEIs individually.
