Tool to Assess Local Climate Inequities in Copenhagen
City Lead: Copenhagen
Year Completed: 2024
Copenhagen mapped climate-related inequities and developed a policy evaluation tool to help identify inequities in the distribution of benefits and burdens from climate initiatives and to identify which groups are potentially negatively affected and which ones will benefit from the initiatives.
Outputs:
- Copenhagen Equity Tool: This tool is in the form of an ‘equity lens’ through which the City of Copenhagen can assess climate initiatives. The central question for this equity lens is: “What does it mean for the people of Copenhagen to thrive?” The tool includes strategies, indicators, needs assessment, guidance for initiative assessment, and a summary of results.
