Type of project

Involvement of the community around the social garden which will result in gaining practical environmental knowledge supported by scientific insights, as well as engagement in climate protection.

Target (Disengaged)

The project has an action strategy designed to engage individuals who are not yet involved.

Science – Based

Use of scientific sources, from IPCC reports to FAO publications and studies on the impact of climate change on women and the Global South. Examples of scientific data will be translated into practice – for instance, how mulching reduces CO2 emissions, or how choosing local products affects the carbon footprint.

Gender

The project incorporates a gender equality perspective – both in content (e.g., the impact of climate change on women, the role of women in agroecology) and in form (active participation of women in conducting activities, inviting female experts, and preventing exclusion in working groups).

Planned activities

Main topics of the project:

• climate crisis
• fair trade
• seasonality and responsible consumption
• and gender equality in the context of environmental change”

Organizing:

Activities in the community garden at least once a month.

Community creation of an educational trail in the social garden, accessible to everyone.

Action model

The project, through the involvement of the community around the social garden, addresses two major challenges: the lack of social engagement and the low level of trust in science.
