Description
Greek cities, similarly to European and other cities globally, are called to play a central role in advancing the great goal of climate adaptation and resilience to the new 21st challenges. In Greece, municipalities are obliged, amongst others, to develop and implement Local Adaptation Plans for Climate Change; Local Plans for Green House emissions as well as Urban Resilience Plans.
The Climate Change Hub (CCHuB) aiming to directly strengthen Municipalities, organises under the auspices of the Central Union of Municipalities of Greece (KEDE) the second online networking and information-sharing webinar. We are inviting you to join a special online seminar that brings together leading international organizations - all with strong local presences here in Greece - that are providing critical support to local governments to achieve their climate action and energy transition goals.
