CAERPHILLY Climate Resilient Communities Workshop

Climate Resilient Communities WorkshopsThese are five, face to face workshops1 in each of the counties of Gwent - Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly, Monmouthshire, Newport and Torfaen.By this time information will have been gathered to inform the Risk Assessment and these workshops provide the opportunity for local communities to ‘sense-check’ the emergent findings. The attendees would include those with in increasing interest in the process, but also locally influential individuals with less direct interest in the risks from a changing climate, but a willingness to build relationships and leave an event better informed.Aim:To sense check emerging findings of the Climate Change Risk Assessment, gather evidence of people’s perceptions of cumulative and combined risks and understand their priorities for climate adaptation.Audience:The public sector:• Local Authority managers/officers leading on community health, social services; community development; place planning, the Local Development Plan, education and regeneration.• Lead Elected Members on climate resilience, Community and Scrutiny may also be interested in attending.• Further and Higher Education partners and providers.Third Sector partners including:• Community Voluntary Councils / Associations and partners, Community Organisations, Town and Community Councils, Housing Associations, Residents Associations, ‘Friends of’ groups and Local Nature Partnership members.Business Sector partners including:• Business in the Community Cymru, Federation of Small Business, large local employers and the Chambers of Commerce representatives.• National Farmers Union and Farmers Union of Wales.Note: These workshops are ‘in-person’ events,as the participants share insights, stories and their experience about their own communities – prompted by and contributing to physical maps of the area. The maps are the catalysts for engagement and the eventual records of what’s discussed.
