About this project
<p>The general objective of the project is to increase the capacity of ATU Campina Municipality to face the challenges caused by climate change, the need to adapt, as well as the need to mitigate its effects, by integrating local knowledge and raise awareness in the administration and local community. Specific objectives refer to: Knowledge development and improving the capacity to manage climate change and its impact by developing strategies and plans for mitigation and adaptation to climate change in Campina. Raising awareness regarding the challenges posed by climate change and the need for adaptation, as well as the need to mitigate its effects and the responsiveness of the local public authority in the current context, through information and employee involvement at the authority level and local public level. For implementation of Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Plan, the project considers the concrete situation at the level of Campina municipality, delivering the identification of the Campina municipality areas facing the release of high concentration of greenhouse gases and pollution with negative effects on human health, ecosystems, constructions and transport infrastructure, energy distribution, water supply and collection, drainage systems and rainwater collection networks etc. Thus, having a comprehensive image of the amplitude of this challenge, the project proposes measures to mitigate impact of climate change. These measures result from impact studies, climate change analysed scenarios and identification of risk areas for extreme phenomena, and their effects relies in many benefits to the environment, society and economy, and a sustainable local development. The proposed activities address different categories of inhabitants, with different training level.</p>
