Objectives:

  • Identifying the main challenges posed by climate change in the territories;
  • Collectively defining the most appropriate solutions to address these challenges.

In a context where climate change is already affecting natural, economic, and human environments, the MUBR is leveraging its expertise in participatory strategies to support public mobilization around “Climate Plan” initiatives.

In collaboration with the Manicouagan Regional County Municipality, the MUBR is designing and facilitating the Manicouagan Climate Plan mobilization process, an initiative that places the population and municipal teams at the heart of the discussion. Through a citizen survey, public consultations, and meetings with key individuals and organizations in the region, this ongoing initiative is identifying local concerns, perceived vulnerabilities, and priority courses of action to strengthen regional resilience.

At the same time, MU Conseils is also supporting the Témiscamingue Regional County Municipality in a similar process, focusing on open consultation and collaboration with technical experts to better understand climate risks and adapt land use planning, development, and management strategies.

Impact for Manicouagan:

The mobilization of the Manicouagan Climate Plan has raised collective awareness of the effects of climate change in the region. By giving a voice to the various stakeholders, the initiative promotes a more detailed analysis of the realities and the emergence of a common vision for the future of the territory. It helps to better target adaptation priorities, equip local decision-makers, and forge lasting links between regional actors.

A project funded in part by the Government of Canada through the Sustainable Development Goals Program.
