The working group's aim is to establish Climate Walks as an inter- and transdisciplinary format and to build a community of practice around it, in order to arrive at scientifically and socially robust climate protection and climate change adaptation solutions more quickly and effectively.
The format is based on the method of walking (ref), which makes local contexts tangible, raises awareness of sensory perceptions, and encourages low-threshold exchange, mutual learning, and collaboration between different societal actors.
The working group synthesises existing experience with the format and its requirements and effects, drawn from excursions, city walks, and so on.
In addition, the working group's members themselves carry out science-based Climate Walks in various spatial and social contexts, gaining further practical experience and generating new systems and transformation knowledge.
