Introduction

This resource hub is intended to support municipal staff with identifying equity and climate synergies in their climate action plans. If your municipality already has an existing plan, this hub can help strengthen it, and if you are still in the process of developing one, this is the perfect place to get started.

CAP hosted a workshop on equity and climate synergies for municipal staff in November 2022. CAP is grateful to all attendees whose valuable input helped us shape this resource hub. We will host additional crowdsourcing efforts throughout 2023 to bring municipal networks together to expand and improve the hub on an ongoing basis.

As the hub is intended to be a living, continuously updated resource, and a place to track input and actions from across the network, we welcome any feedback or additional examples we can share of climate actions that advance equity. Comments or contributions can be submitted here.

Additional Goals:

  • To share leading practices for integrating equity into climate action plans
  • To provide real-world examples and case studies of equity and climate synergies, including missed opportunities
  • To share additional readings, toolkits, guides, and workshops to support municipal staff with advancing equity and climate synergies
  • To compile research into an easily accessible format to improve access across the network and advance equity and climate outcomes broadly
