CITIZENS' ASSEMBLY

Citizens' assembly, Climate Emergency

A Citizens' assembly brings together people from all walks of life who broadly represent the various and vibrant community to discuss important issues – in this case the Climate Emergency and how South Yorkshire should respond.

People who attend will learn about the climate emergency, what impact it may have on our region, and some of the decisions we need to make in our homes, communities and businesses to address it. There'll be the opportunity to discuss them with one another, and then make recommendations about what you think should happen and how things should change.

We are now recruiting for the South Yorkshire Climate Emergency Citizens' Assembly.

If you would like to express your interest in taking part, please fill in the form below.

Following the initial expressions of interest, selected residents will be sent information on signing up to attend the Citizens' Assembly. 

We will be using statistics from the Office for National Statistics to calculate the numbers of people we need to recruit from different backgrounds in order to produce a profile of participants that broadly reflects the diversity of the population on South Yorkshire.
