Last week, on April 17, IMAGINE Adaptation held the first meeting with our board of experts after the kick off.
The meeting provided space to assess progress, discuss challenges, and announce plans for the coming year. It was also a good opportunity for the board to meet with the IMAGINE adaptation team and offer their advice and perspective based on experience. The expert board includes a diverse panel of experts from various academic and research backgrounds, as well as international city networks: José Luis Molina (Ethics advisor, The Autonomous University of Barcelona), Snigdha Garg (C40), Lisa Schipper (University of Bonn), Sander Chan (Radboud University), Vasileios Latinos (ICLEI) and Vanesa Castán Broto (University of Sheffield).
The meeting was highly productive, setting the stage for exciting developments in the ongoing journey of IMAGINE Adaptation.
