The transition to net zero involves a very large number of decisions, policies and measures and will require significant change, which may be difficult, uncomfortable, expensive, inequitable, and subject to significant resistance and delay.<\/p>

Change in the city will come as a result of actions that stakeholders want and can do. If these interests, wills, affordances and actions are synergistic, then change will be accelerated, inclusive, democratic and sustainable. The Co\u039b (City of Lemesos) and LC3 leads this process of change in partnership, initially academia, professional associations, NGOs, government agencies, and stakeholders (citizens, owners, professional and business associations, NGOs). Citizens as individuals are often associated with more than one stakeholder category and are carriers of conflicting views, thus becoming channels of communication between stakeholders.<\/p>

Social change envisaged:\u00a0<\/span>from needs up to citizenship and\u00a0<\/span>from skillfully active people down to climate deniers and adversarial<\/span><\/p>

Needs > Interest > Opportunities >\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

active engagement >\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>

Ownership > entrepreneurship > Citizenship<\/span><\/i><\/p>

In parallel with increasing the level and quality of involvement from needs to citizenship, the participatory process engages -as time goes by- a broader circle of citizens and stakeholders, from those already aware and active, to those initially adversarial to sustainability activities.<\/span><\/p>
