JPI Climate: Collective urban governance, innovation and creativity in the face of climate change (SELFCITY)

SELFCITY项目将探索自我组织的过程，这些过程支持欧洲三个国家以社区为主导的基于项目的应对措施（在适应和减缓方面）。自我组织（即社区自我组织的方式）是三个相互关联的过程之一（沿着还有市场主导和国家主导的机制），这三个过程支撑着向适应性城市环境的任何务实和创新的过渡，这种环境更接近碳中和，并且可能对不断变化的（气候引起的）天气模式带来的挑战更具弹性。在过去，人们就市场主导和国家主导的举措的作用开展了大量工作，但是，我们对民间社会如何构建有时是替代性的、有时是补充性的应对气候变化的方式了解得少得多。该项目将结合联合收割机社会研究人员领导的工作与参与行动研究，探索，记录和加强社区活动家组织创新，创新和务实的气候变化对策它将阐述这些活动家/实践者和与他们一起工作的社区成员如何理解气候变化问题。该项目将为活动分子创造空间，以确定能力建设需求，并为研究小组与活动分子合作满足这些需求创造空间。通过这些互动和反思活动，学术和从业人员团队将梳理出日常知识和应对气候挑战的技术知识之间相互关系的紧张关系和潜力。该项目不仅分析了特定国家背景下这些知识创造形式的紧张关系，而且还使用跨国比较来帮助参与者打破气候变化问题和变化机会的文化隐含（和固定）结构。

The SELFCITY project will explore the processes of self-organisation that underpin community-led project-based responses (in terms of both adaptation and mitigation) to climate change in three countries across Europe. Self-organising (i.e. the ways in which communities organise themselves) is one of the three inter-linked processes (along with market-led and state-led mechanisms) that underpin any pragmatic and innovative transition to an adapted urban environment that is closer to being carbon neutral and that may be more resilient to the challenges resulting from changing (climate-induced) weather patterns. In the past considerable work has been carried out on the role of market-led and state-led initiatives, however, we understand far less about the ways in which civil society constructs what are sometimes alternative and sometimes complementary ways of addressing climate change.Building on existing research and practice on adapting the built environment, urban neighbourhoods and facilitating energy transition, the project will combine social researcher-led work with participant action research to explore, record and enhance the ways community activists are organizing innovative, creative and pragmatic climate change responses in their communities (of place and of space).It will set out how the problem(s) of climate change are understood both by these activists/practitioners and by the community members they work with. The project will create space for activists to identify capacity-building needs and for the research team to work with activists to fill these needs. Through these interactive and reflective activities the academic and practitioners teams will tease out the tensions and potentials of the inter-relation of everyday knowledge and technical knowledge on climate challenge responses. Not only does this project analyse the tensions in these forms of knowledge creation within a given national context, but it also uses cross-national comparison to help participants break out of culturally implicit (and fixed) constructions of both the climate change problem and the opportunities for change.
