The Occupy Climate Change! research project has since its start in 2018 addressed and focused on practices and experiments of grassroots organizations and initiatives globally, investigating their diverse, dynamic, and self-organized responses to loss and damage caused by climate change. Join us when OCC! team presents their findings from case studies from New York, Malmö, Rio de Janeiro, Naples, and Istanbul and their launch of the “Atlas of the Other Worlds”. 

The “Atlas of the Other Worlds” is collecting urban grassroots initiatives and city initiatives that are tackling climate change across the globe and collecting people’s creative stories of futures they imagine! Join us to hear about our research findings and how to contribute to the growing OCC! Atlas and the global OCC! network.
