Community-driven energy solutions that combines social insights, like understanding cultural and behavioral barriers, with technology can help create more effective climate actions. By using participatory digital platforms, such as co-designed apps and maps, we can improve transparency, local feedback, and ensure that climate strategies meet the needs and values of these communities.

The topic is relevant. Yet, I would strongly suggest to create a research question that can be conceptually addressed based on literature. It is OK to investigate which measure seems more likely to be realized or which measure seems to be more likely to have an effect. However, this should be conducted from a science-driven point of view. Otherwise the topic might run into the danger of being more a recipe for action instead of a scientifically driven analysis.
The involvement of local communities in the energy transition is a relevant and interesting poster topic for “Researching and Shaping Climate Futures”. The idea. hovewer, is too generic and needs to be focused, e.g., on partipatory digital platforms such as apps, and on on or two relevant cases (see Ariadna’s post). And, who is the “we” in the above text, and does such a “we” exist in social reality?
