Ecolise

ECOLISE (European Network for Community-Led Initiatives on Climate Change and Sustainability) is a coalition of organisations engaged in promoting and supporting local communities across Europe in their efforts to build pathways to a sustainable future. The members of ECOLISE include international, national and sometimes regional networks of community-based initiatives, as well as other bodies engaged in European-level research, training, communications or other activities to support community-based action on climate change and sustainability. By bringing these organisations together, ECOLISE seeks to establish a common Europe-wide agenda and a platform for collective action. ECOLISE mission is to create an accessible and evolving international platform for learning, action and advocacy in service to community-led initiatives on climate change and sustainability in Europe. ECOLISE aims to celebrate, stimulate and increase the positive impact of community-led action on sustainability and climate change, by: - raising the profile and highlighting the potential of what is already happening across Europe and beyond; - sharing and co-creating knowledge and catalysing effective cooperation among member networks and other stakeholders; - influencing European and national policy development and delivery to empower, enable and build upon the benefits of community-led action.
