In 2021, Krakow's first citizen assembly, the Krakow Climate Assembly, was held to discuss climate change and the city's climate neutrality. It was attended by a group of citizens, representative of the whole city in terms of socio-demographic and spatial characteristics: gender, age group, district of residence and education level.

 

The aim of the Climate Assembly was: 

  • increasing the focus of public awareness discussions around the climate crisis; 
  • to build a climate transition supportive community of: residents, experts, community organisations and businesses; 
  • gathering a pool of ideas on energy efficiency and the use of renewable energy; 
  • to obtain recommendations for joint action by the city and residents; 
  • gaining broad acceptance for the city's transformation efforts. 

 

The Krakow Climate Assembly was a success. The result of its work was the development 32 high quality recommendations which, according to the adopted assumptions, are binding for the Mayor of the City of Krakow.
