We are still learning about how best to organise climate assemblies – that’s why KNOCA has been established.
Climate assemblies share a number of key features, although how they are realised in practice differs.
These include:
- Purpose
- Commissioning
- Task
- Commitment to respond
- Governance
- Delivery bodies
- Participant recruitment
- Duration
- Structure and facilitation
- Evidence base
- Developing recommendations
- Decision making
- Final report
- Communication
- Public engagement
- Oversight of official response
- Impact
- Evaluation
- Budget
In the report, “Climate Assemblies – Key Features”, we summarise what we know about these different features, drawing particularly on the experience of national-level climate assemblies.
