Just-SAFE
Justice-Oriented Strategies for Social Adaptive Risk Management
ABOUT THE PROJECT
JUST-SAFE aligns with the EU Climate Change Adaptation Mission, adopting a comprehensive and participatory approach for inclusive adaptation.
JUSTSAFE is a European Horizon Europe project focused on climate change adaptation from a perspective of social justice and inclusion. The project explores how the climate and digital transitions can better meet the needs of the most vulnerable and marginalised social groups, such as older people, children, women and girls in all their diversity, and people with disabilities. JUSTSAFE aligns with the European Union’s Climate Change Adaptation Mission and is funded under the HORIZON-MISS-2024-CLIMA-01 programme.
PROJECT CHARACTERISTICS
Type of project: European
Duration: 2025 – 2029
PROJECT OBJECTIVES
The main objective of the project is to strengthen the climate resilience of communities and local authorities by developing strategies, tools and participatory activities that involve vulnerable groups in the design of solutions. To this end, JUSTSAFE combines co-creation processes, risk communication, training, digital and green solutions, and pilot initiatives aimed at achieving a more just and inclusive approach to climate adaptation.
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).
