Climate × Care Café - Resilience Circle

The climate crisis, biodiversity loss and pollution are deeply interconnected, challenging the resilience of ecosystems, communities and societies. 

The EU resilience framework highlights the need for integrated, anticipatory and inclusive approaches to preparing for and responding to crises. Yet environmental risks and their impacts are not experienced equally. An intersectional perspective helps us understand how gender and social inequalities shape vulnerability, access to resources, participation in decision-making and the distribution of care. 

Climate × Care Café - Resilience Circle is an interactive space for collective reflection, dialogue and shared learning. Connecting the EU resilience agenda with intersectional climate action, we will explore care as a shared social and ecological foundation for resilience. 

Topics include: 

• The EU resilience framework and community-led responses to interconnected crises.
• Intersectionality, gender equality and environmental justice.
• Care, wellbeing and solidarity as foundations of individual and collective resilience. 

The objective is to identify how everyday practices of care and stronger relationships with one another and the living world can contribute to more just, inclusive and resilient communities and ecosystems. Together, we will explore pathways from recognition to implementation, cultivating a culture of circular care that connects personal wellbeing, community resilience and systemic change.
