Youth Global Climate Cafe, with Floris Boogaard and students. He said “We will show ‘Action-Acceleration-Adaptation, Think Global, Act Local’ by starting with 3 short videos of (applied) university teams (VHL, Hanze and RUG) that will explain the impact of climate adaptation and opportunities for local action in North East Netherlands. “Short pitches and a debate to come to Climate Action Strategy with several stakeholders and concrete follow up for climate adaptation”, can be seen here:

Hanze and their partners (RUG, VHL, university of Wageningen and Delft) have several action tracks on ‘Action-Acceleration-Adaptation, Think Global, Act Local’ with citizen science tools as ClimateScan.org and ClimateCafe.nl involving youth in the wicked climate related challenges.

This Workshop was partly made possible thanks to the efforts of Program towards a rich Wadden Sea and Hanze IWP.
