From Information to Action: Effective Climate Communication at the Local Level – webinar highlights
In recent years, it has become increasingly clear that information alone is not enough to encourage residents to take climate action. That is why effective communication, which builds trust and shows residents that change is possible here and now at the municipal or city level, is gaining importance. These issues were the focus of the webinar “From Information to Action: Effective Climate Communication at the Local Level”, held on January 28, 2026, on Zoom. The event brought together representatives from local governments, NGOs, and public institutions interested in building effective communication models and providing real support to residents in the energy transition.
