LALRG inviting for international seminar “Inspiring Change Together: Sustainable Solutions in Municipalities.”

On September 24, the Latvian Association of Local and Regional Governments is organising international seminar “Inspiring Change Together: Sustainable Solutions in Municipalities.” dedicated to the promotion of municipal sustainable development. The seminar will take place in Ādaži municipality (Latvia), hosting annually our events dedicated to the localisation of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

The world is changing, and how we are able to create sustainable solutions in our cities and regions is becoming increasingly important. The seminar will bring together representatives of local authorities, practitioners and inspiring lecturers from Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania to share their experiences and discover how to jointly promote the development of municipalities, for example, by implementing investment projects, introducing energy efficiency measures and managing flood risks. In the second part of the seminar, participants are invited to participate in the study visit taking place in Ādaži municipality, getting acquainted with examples of investment projects and sustainable development activities in reality, e.g., latest innovations and robots working in the manufacturing company “Hornbaek Baltic” and visiting Carnikava Local History Centre implementing climate change adaptation activities.

The seminar, which takes place within the framework of the European Union co-funded program “Empowering LRGs’ for Sustainable Policy Implementation and Civic Engagement in Europe” (SPICE), is organized by the Latvian Association of Local and Regional Governments in cooperation with the Council of European Municipalities and Regions (CEMR) and Adazi municipality.

Likewise, the event is also part of the European Sustainable Development Week.
