Lambeth's Citizens' Assembly on Climate Change goes live!

Hello Lambeth Citizens!

We're pleased to announce that Lambeth’s first Citizens' Assembly on Climate Change will launch in 11 days! 50 residents from across Lambeth’s communities have been selected selected by the Sortition Foundation to reflect the demographic make-up of the borough.

Facilitated by independent organisation, Traverse , from 25th May – 3rd July, participants will learn about the climate crisis, hear from experts and local communities, and develop a set of recommendations for how Lambeth should respond.

On behalf of Lambeth Council and our partners, thank you for the evidence submitted to the Climate Action Hub last year. This evidence has been collated, and will be shared with the assembly members to help them understand what people in Lambeth think about climate change and the solutions we already have in the borough that we can build on.

We are so excited to re-launch this site, which will be updated with expert presentations, learning materials and questionnaires as the process unfolds. You can watch along and engage across the 3 phases: learn , discover , recommend !

We will be sharing your comments with the assembly, and hope to create a process that is as transparent, accessible, and inclusive as possible. So, please share this site with your networks.
