Climate of Change: perceptions of environmental challenges in Portugal
How important do the Portuguese consider the fight against climate change? What motivates them to take action for environmental protection? And what role do environmental organizations play in this mobilization?
Watch or rewatch the presentation of the study Climate of Change: Perceptions of Environmental Challenges in Portugal, commissioned by the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation from Ipsos APEME, to better understand citizens’ attitudes toward environmental issues and how organizations working in this field are perceived, including the approaches they use to engage the public in their activities.
The study’s findings were presented in this session by the author, Filipa Dias, followed by two roundtable discussions on some of the key challenges identified in the research: mobilizing Portuguese citizens for climate action and the need to expand the social recognition of environmental organizations.
