SUMMARY:The Leading Role of Cities in Fighting Against Climate Change (Madrid)
DESCRIPTION:Event Background\nThe role of cities is gaining prominence in the fight against climate change. The extreme severity of the environmental crisis would require urgent and courageous decision taking and action by government institutions at national\, European and global levels\, in the short\, medium and long term\, but on the contrary\, the interference of economic powers is making this decision-making extremely slow and with little ambitious goals. \nThe municipalities\, as institutions closer to citizenship\, and citizen movements are getting many cities to take measures that are making them the forefront of the fight against climate change in the face of the paralysis of other institutions. \nAbout the Event\nThis round table discussion will take place as part of the GEF transnational project Cities as Places of Hope in the European Union. \nIt will allow the speakers and guests to listen to and exchange on the different experiences of European cities and analyse the role that citizens can play in fighting a global crisis that threatens us all. \nSpeakers\n\nInés Sabanés\, Councilor for More Madrid at the Madrid City Council\nJúlia López Ventura\, European Regional Director in C40\nRosa Fraga\, Architect. Administrative Coordinator of the Platform for a New Energy Model (Px1NME)\nDirk Holemans\, former Councilor of Ghent (Belgium)\, Director of the Think Tank Oikos\, member of the board of the Green European Foundation.\n\nPracticalities\nThis roundtable discussion is an open event. If you like to attend\, please register your interest by contacting our partner at info@fundacionequo.es. \n\nRound table organized by the Green European Foundation (GEF) with the support of Fundación EQUO and the collaboration of La Casa Encendida.  \n
