Climate Change Hub

a dynamic initiative

What is the

Climate Change Hub

The Climate Change Hub is a scalable multi-year initiative of three international institutions: Resilience Cities Catalyst (RCC), the Democracy & Culture Foundation (DCF), and Hellenic Foundation for European & Foreign Policy (ELIAMEP), to advance progress toward climate transformation and recovery goals in Greece and the broader region of southeast Europe.

With the firm belief that the challenges of our time can be answered by strengthening the democratic institutions, the Climate Change Hub is convinced that the society should take an active role in the green transition, by enabling social responsibility and thus strengthening environmental democracy.
