Just-SAFE
Justice-Oriented Strategies for Social Adaptive Risk Management
ABOUT THE PROJECT
JUST-SAFE is a European project that seeks to design and implement fair and inclusive strategies to improve climate resilience and advance digital transitions. It focuses on prioritising the most vulnerable and marginalised social groups — such as older people, children, women and girls in all their diversity, and people with disabilities — who are often disproportionately affected by climate change.
The project promotes direct investments by local authorities that generate a positive impact on these communities. It also promotes co-creative digital activities, climate and digital activism, and political commitment to support sustainable innovations in cities, thus avoiding social exclusion.

IBERCIVIS’ ROLE
The Ibercivis Foundation is leading the work package on training and capacity building in the JUST-SAFE project. Its main role is to develop educational materials, coordinate training activities (including serious games and simulators), and evaluate the impact of these actions on climate and digital literacy, especially among vulnerable groups. It also contributes to the design of citizen participation and co-creation strategies.
OUR ACTIVITIES
– Development of training materials (courses, educational resources, and digital content) tailored to diverse audiences, especially vulnerable ones.
– Creation of simulators and serious games to train in climate change adaptation and encourage active participation.
– Organisation of demonstration exercises and face-to-face and digital training sessions in pilot and replicating regions.
– Evaluation of the impact of training, including pre- and post-activity surveys to measure improvements in climate and digital literacy.
– Support for the co-creation of participatory tools and methodologies, in collaboration with other consortium partners.
– Contribution to citizen participation and co-design strategies (e.g. through the development of surveys, interviews and co-creation events).
