🌱 Shaping Climate-Neutral Futures in Peri-Urban Areas 🌍
On the 16th and 17th of June, Valongo Municipality implemented the PeriNext Brainstorm Workshop, held in Valongo, Portugal, focused on the transition to climate neutrality in peri-urban areas.
Over two days of rich discussion and collaboration, Valongo brought together diverse perspectives across 6 interactive working groups:
🔋 Energy
🌳 Environment
💼 Economy & Enterprises
🏙️ Urban Planning
🤝 Social Work
🚲 🚌 Mobility
Together, we explored innovative ideas and addressed the real challenges of climate neutrality. Through SWOT analyses of good practices and bold new solutions, we surfaced actionable insights that can inspire local transformation.
What made this workshop powerful was the multi-stakeholder engagement:
✅ Experts from different fields
✅ Educators and local community members
✅ Municipal leaders from Valongo
✅ Dynamic moderators who helped guide the sessions
The Q&A moments created space for critical reflection and alignment across sectors, reminding us that climate neutrality isn’t just a technical goal, it’s a social one.
The PeriNext project continues to be a collaborative journey, and this workshop was a strong step forward.
🚀 Onward to more inclusive, climate-resilient peri-urban futures!
