On the road to climate neutrality in 2030, we discuss needs, understand the problems, propose specific solutions, and implement interventions, to tackle the heat in Lemesos without causing temperature-increasing emissions.
Co-design solutions workshops (“co-workshops”)
through a systemic model based on the active participation of local government, institutions, professional groups and citizens through co-design solutions workshops.
Propose an intervention
Knowing the needs of your neighbourhood, workplace, or area, we invite you to propose an action, and the LC3 team will help you implement it through the initiative "Let 100 Flowers Bloom".
The Lemesos Commons
The solutions provided by co-design solutions workshops are analyzed and discussed by the “Lemesos Commons”, a group in which representatives of the stakeholders participate and examine the feasibility of implementing the solutions.
The participatory co-design solutions workshops - co-workshops- constitute a field of interaction of the wider Lemesos community, where through processing and participatory planning we revisit the needs of the city (public spaces and spaces of public use) and buildings (existing and new) to reduce cooling needs by adapting them to the requirements of climate change.
The co-workshops, which involve homogeneous groups of citizens, aim to respond to specific problems related to the reduction of temperature in the city, to observe the process and to enable the project to guide so that actions can be feasible on a large scale through the Climate City Contract.
You can participate in the co-workshops
- as an expert
- as a team leader
- or as a facilitator with appropriate support from the LC3 project team.
Co-design solutions workshops are planned and operated for
- Professionals involved in the design of public and private built environments (architects, civil engineers, contractors, urban planners, agronomists, social scientists, etc.).
- Staff and employees of the local government of Lemesos Municipality, as well as organizations responsible for the planning, monitoring, and supervision of projects and actions for climate change adaptation.
- Scientists working on climate change issues (especially the phenomenon of urban heat islands).
- active citizens and focused groups concerned with public spaces and who want to intervene through participatory design.
Propose a co-workshop focus on
- my neighbourhood
- my apartment building
- and my organization
receiving the appropriate support from the project for its implementation (educational material, collaboration with experts, etc.).
Describe an action in your apartment building, neighbourhood, or workplace that can contribute to the reduction of temperature, and we will help you implement it.
