CEE Community LAB announces new series of climate innovation events

News 05 Nov 2020

The ‘co-creation lab’ CEE Community LAB, was launched by Climate KIC and partners in October this year to spark climate impact partnerships in the region. A first series of events in October has already started to build a community of climate innovators in Central and Eastern Europe. Today, the Community LAB opens registration for a second series of webinars during November, covering climate-positive agriculture, green growth/reindustrialization, energy efficiency and building trust.

The webinars are a part of the CEE Community LAB’s efforts to build diverse, action-oriented partnerships that identify and address regional climate change priorities. Seed funding of up to €20,000 is available for cross-border projects, and proposals can be submitted by participants who have attended at least two Community LAB events.

The following events are open to anyone who is interested in building cross-country collaborations to combat climate change in the CEE region:
