ClairCity in practice
Throughout 2017 our team was in action across all
six pilot cities and regions.
Across Liguria, Bristol, Amsterdam, Ljubljana,
Sosnowiec and the Aveiro region we have been running
surveys and workshops with citizens. Each pilot area
has managed a combination of live events, social
media campaigns, networks and publicity to reach
residents. These activities are continuing into 2018,
with ongoing work in the Aveiro region, Liguria and
Ljubljana. Here we provide a small snapshot of the
activities across Europe to give a taste of the
engagement that is at the heart of ClairCity.
The Liguria region led a social media
campaign reaching over 14,000
residents in their efforts. Through
working in local forums, providing
context to ongoing news and following
up with social media users, the team
managed to attract over 640 respondents to the first
round questionnaire for ClairCity.
Workshop for residents in Sosnowiec, Poland
The Aveiro region managed to involve over 1,000
people in their first questionnaire, with more still to be
included in their second round. Similarly, across
Ljubljana and Sosnowiec the city councils have ensured
widespread reach of the ClairCity activities across
different neighbourhoods in each city.
Amsterdam and Bristol have both also run workshops
for local residents to attend and find out more about air
pollution and climate change, as well as giving their
opinions on how they want their cities to develop in the
future.
