In-Person Event: “Beyond Awareness: How Civil Society Shapes the Green and Smart City” [for everyone]
The second event will take place in Brussels on 23 October 2025: the event is composed of “Beyond Awareness: How Civil Society Shapes the Green and Smart City” public workshop, followed by a closed session for ALDA members only.
In line with the Environment & Climate Hub motto “Empowering smarter, greener, and more inclusive cities and communities through civic participation”, the workshop will highlight the role of civil society in creating sustainable and digital cities. This public event will showcase experiences from EU-funded projects such as BUILDSPACE and GreenScape, demonstrating how citizens contribute to urban transformation. Using interactive methods, participants will move from dialogue to action, exploring real-world solutions to climate and environmental challenges.
Subsequently, an exclusive members-only session will be dedicated to defining priorities and future activities of the Environment & Climate Hub. This closed discussion will strengthen ALDA’s commitment to co-designing initiatives with its members and collaborating.
