On Thursday, July 11, 2024 We went to Beja as part of the Tunisian Resilient Cities project. We met, at the NOOS cultural cafe, with young people and the planner of Maagoula municipality where we simplified the concept of climate justice and conducted a focus group on climate and environmental issues, as well as potential solutions and various climate-related topics. The highlight was particularly on the water issue in this region. As a reminder, the aim of these focus groups is to integrate their outputs into the content of the climate card game for young people. Stay tuned, we are coming to Ben Arous and Kasserine...
