What do citizens really think about CO2 storage? This webinar shares key findings from PilotSTRATEGY's citizen engagement activities across three European regions. Speakers will share what citizens highlighted as priorities, concerns, and expectations, and how these inputs can inform project communication and community engagement practices. The session will start with an overview of the social science research conducted in the Horizon funded project PilotSTRATEGY. The webinar will close with a moderated Q&A.
This webinar will be recorded. The recording will be made available on the project website.
