Canopy for Climate Democracy

The Canopy for Climate Democracy, part of the Climate Democracy Model, offers a way of assessing and seeing the big picture of a city or region’s climate resilience based on four segments for climate democracy derived from Demsoc’s work: Diversity of actors and knowledge, Participatory culture, Resourcing, and Competencies for climate democracy.

Climate Democracy Model

The Climate Democracy Model (the Model) is Demsoc’s holistic view of what we need to mitigate climate change and build climate resilience in our cities and regions in a democratic way – what we term climate democracy. It consists of practical, interconnected tools for a city or region to assess and analyse its progress towards climate resilience through democratic means.

Actor Types & Interactions

The Actor Types & Interactions tool is part of Demsoc's Climate Democracy Model. It helps us explain the types of actors involved in democratic climate action, what roles they play, and how their roles must evolve to bring about climate resilient futures.
