The ambition of the CLIMAS project is to support a transformation to climate resilience by offering an innovative problem-oriented climate adoption Toolbox, co-designed together with stakeholders by applying a values-based approach, design thinking methods and citizen science mechanisms.

Methodology description
CLIMAS adopts an iterative process of design-thinking in living labs and climate assemblies to develop a portfolio of alternative empowering and engaging mechanisms and tools. These mechanisms and tools will be accessible to diverse actors, who can adapt and deploy them to best suit their socio-cultural contexts through a process of “indigenization”.
