The City of Valencia and Dublin County are both on an ambitious trajectory: Not only do they aim for becoming greener and fairer cities by 2050. But also, they do push beyond their comfort zone by designing their roadmap with a big variety of stakeholders. We chatted with Jordi Peris Blanes, General Coordinator of Urban Strategies and Sustainable Agenda of the València City Council, and Katie Harrington who works as an energy and climate awareness officer at Dublin Energy Agency Codema. During this talk we learnt so much about this very creative vision-building in times of climate urgency.
