State coordination of the European Climate Pact

Description

The Climate Pact is an EU initiative that was launched in 2020 to bring the challenges and opportunities of the green transition closer to all citizens, stakeholders and non-state actors, informing them and encouraging them to participate in climate action.

It is a platform designed for different non-state actors to meet, exchange and share information and examples of practices towards climate action at the local level. In this sense, the Pact aims to involve citizens, groups, local communities, regions, industries, schools and civil society to cooperate and learn together towards collective climate action.

Spain is one of the countries that has shown its commitment. This year, it is developing a work plan with activities that take as objectives:

Promote the European Climate Pact.
Organize awareness-raising events and promote changes in habits.
Collect good practices to make them known at a national and international level.
Support the ambassadors and the Covenant community as critical multiplier agents.

Spain has a large network of ambassadors for the Climate Pact where more than a hundred volunteers contribute their knowledge and influence to raise awareness of the Pact’s mission and encourage climate action.
