CLIMACY | Practical seminar in Tbilisi, Georgia

The first seminar focuses on an exchange between participants and experts from Georgian organisations on climate protection work and advocacy activities. The seminar aims at supporting peer learning and networking. It includes best-practices and examples from Georgian activists. Another focus will be on the role of democracy and civil society in climate protection. A training will complement the discussions with hand-on practices for good advocacy work and communication.

The project combines different activities: In May, participants will get to know each other at a digital kick-off workshop, which addresses the challenges of climate impact adaptation in Georgia and Germany. During the first seminar in Tbilisi, participants and experts from Georgian organizations will exchange ideas on climate protection work. During the working phase, participants will work individually and in transnational teams to develop an advocacy strategy on a specific climate impact adaptation issue. Two digital networking meetings are offered in parallel, where participants can exchange information on the status of their projects and receive advice. The second seminar in Berlin is dedicated to the exchange of experiences with a focus on the European perspective and gender equality. The results and learnings will be collected on a multilingual blog page.
