COM4LGD project Documentary & Website are live!
We’re thrilled to launch our interactive documentary and website for Communities for Local Green Deal!
Across Europe, people in local communities are building new food systems, reclaiming political agency, standing for gender justice, and nurturing resilience in the face of climate breakdown. They are not waiting, but leading the way.
Our European project emphasizes that real sustainability must be rooted in local community action and democratic participation. Produced in collaboration between GEN Europe, ECOLISE, ICLEI Europe, ISCTE – University Institute of Lisbon, ECON and ELARD, our newly launched interactive documentary takes you on a journey to meet the people creating just and sustainable futures through personal stories and grounded experiences in their own neighbourhoods, farms, forests, and town halls.
| The topics and people you’ll see and hear from in the documentary: Food Sovereignty: Johannes Kuebel and Adrián Areta Women’s Rights and Empowerment: Mieke Elzenga and Mauge Cañada Political Re-engagement: Camilla Nielsen-Englyst and Ana Margarida Esteves Climate Crisis and Resilience: Marc Pleyser and Maksym Zalevski Intersectionality and Inclusion: Matteo Zampatti and Genny Carraro |
| We’ve also launched an accompanying interactive website featuring resources, forum, events and stories that showcase a personal and empowering exploration of community-driven initiatives. This experience centers the lived expertise of changemakers who embody what a Green Deal can look like when it grows from the ground up. Visit our platform today and join the movement of communities building sustainable futures from the ground up! Watch the documentary to be inspired by stories of local action and take the survey to contribute your voice to the conversation on community-led change. |
