Support Climate Adaptation and Social Solidarity at Diakonie Bayern

Beskrivning

KADia is a climate adaptation project of Diakonie Bavaria. It supports social organisations working with vulnerable groups such as older people, children, and persons with disabilities. Climate change – including extreme heat, heavy rainfall, and flooding – increasingly affects these organisations and the people they support. The aim of KADia is to help social institutions prepare for these impacts and develop practical responses. The project shares knowledge on climate adaptation, connects organisations, highlights good practice examples, and collects successful measures on a digital platform. As a European Solidarity Corps volunteer, you will support the project by helping organise online and in-person events, assisting with communication activities, and contributing to visibility through social media, short texts, and outreach materials. In this way, you will help raise awareness of climate challenges in the social sector and support efforts to protect vulnerable people.
