It is also related to our [[XR and future democracy]] article. There's also a separate article: [[List of UK climate assemblies]].\n\nThe term climate assembly is used here to mean any citizens assembly considering, either exclusively or otherwise, a response to [[climate change]] or climate emergency.\n\nThe list could be expanded to include also peoples' assemblies, or other gatherings, for example of the kinds listed on the [https://www.xrdemocracy.uk/ Future Democracy Hub] happening in response to climate emergency.\n\n== Global assembly ==\n\n* [https://www.gcacoalition.org/ Coalition for a Global Citizens’ Assembly], Video: Global Assembly on [https://www.youtube.com/@globalassembly8969/videos youtube.com], ''added 16:48, 25 October 2024 (UTC)''\n\n== [[Europe]] ==\n\n* European Assembly for Climate Justice {{W|European Assembly for Climate Justice}}\n\nThe European Assembly for Climate Justice took place in Brussels from 26 to 29 November 2010. Over 250 people from ten European countries assembled for four days of debates, discussion, action and networking. The Assembly was organised following a call out from Via Campesina for 1000 Cancuns where people across the world would organise popular assemblies in the run up to the COP16. Activities included a Critical mass bike ride, workshops, a popular assembly, a conference and a \"Sing for the Climate\" event organised by the Belgian Climate Coalition.\n\n=== Channel Islands ===\n\n* [https://www.climateconversation.je/citizens-assembly/ Citizens' Assembly, Jersey Climate Conversation], The Assembly will meet for two months form the 13 March, with 9,000 randomly selected households receiving an invitation to join.<ref>Islanders encouraged to join Jersey's Climate Conversation, Feb 1, [https://www.gov.je/News/2021/Pages/climateconversation.aspx gov.je]</ref>\n\n=== [[France]] ===\n\n* [https://www.conventioncitoyennepourleclimat.fr/ Citizens Climate Convention]\n\n=== [[Hungary]] ===\n\n* [https://demnet.hu/en/projektek/budapesti-kozossegi-gyules-a-klimavaltozasrol-2020/ Citizens' Assembly on Climate Change (2020)], Budapest\n\n=== Ireland ===\n\n* Climate change: Irish Youth Assembly demands action, Nov 16, 2019...<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-50434646 BBC News]</ref>\n\n{{Wikipedia excerpt|Citizens' Assembly (Ireland)|Climate change}}\n\n=== [[Poland]] ===\n\nAs of November 2019, 4 local groups, see Map of climate assemblies, [http://web.archive.org/web/20201117163724/https://climateassemblies.org/a-map-of-climate-assemblies/ climateassemblies.org]\n\n=== [[Portugal]] ===\n\n[[Portugal#Lisbon's Green PB|Lisbon's Green PB]]: Starting in 2019 Lisbon City Council's first ever 'green' PB, part of Lisbon City's wider participatory budget, a €5 million budget to support climate change mitigation and adaptation projects selected by local citizens.\n\n== [[Canada]] ==\n\n=== [[Alberta]] ===\n\n[[Alberta#Edmonton Citizens' Panel on Energy & Climate|Edmonton Citizens' Panel on Energy & Climate]]\n\nStarting in Oct 2012 a 56-member citizens' inquiry was commissioned by the city of Edmonton to help develop an energy transition plan.\n\n== [[United States]] ==\n\n=== [[Washington]] ===\n\n* STATE LEGISLATORS ENDORSE AN INDEPENDENT CITIZENS' CLIMATE ASSEMBLY IN WASHINGTON\n\nAssembly to be held remotely in early 2021.

Another is Citizens' Juries and Assemblies. Both are discussed within this report.\n\nWe have also drawn on the findings of our series of 'Our Money, Our Planet' workshops. We held these workshops across the UK in 2019. Their aim was to explore how Participatory Budgeting might most effectively help to address our impending climate crisis, and its links to a Green New Deal.
