Manchester citizens assembly
In 2021 106 Manchester residents across 5 regions attended a citizens climate assembly to educate themselves about the climate emergency. They met for 5 weeks in small groups covering all aspects of climate issues then came together twice to produce a citizens mandate that was delivered to the council leaders. This is a link to the materials produced. The most interesting bits are the action plans (scroll down) which highlight the priorities that we identified by each of the area. See how well these match with your own priorities.
