Local authorities have a crucial role in driving resilience – societal ability to adapt and react – but due to complexity of the challenges, they need to mobilise all levels of society to co-create solutions that enable a needed change in our traditional ways of doing things. Various civil society actors have an important role in helping society to cope with external disturbances.

The first WMT! webinar provides an outlook on different dimensions of transition management and role of civil society actors in eco-social sustainability.

The webinar is part of the We make transition! – project that aims to engage a number of regional and local authorities, civil society and other innovation actors from the Baltic Sea region to learn about transition management and role of various civil society actors in fostering eco-social sustainability. The project will utilise the Transition Arena method as a tool to co-create new solutions with actors representing different levels of society.
