Amplifying Voices: Engaging diverse populations in the Maine Climate Plan update
Description
Our project, at the University of Maine Mitchell Center for Sustainability Solutions, aims to increase participation and inclusion of Maine’s disadvantaged populations in the 2024 statewide climate plan update. Based on recommendations from the Equity Subcommittee of the Maine Climate Council, this project increases participation of at-risk populations such as people of color, low-income households, and rural communities across the state, by partnering with organizations local to target populations to help facilitate discussions, surveys, and focus groups.
