The climate emergency does not impact all Londoners equally. Those enduring poverty and health inequalities are more likely to experience its effects, like flooding and overheating. Today I’ve launched new funding with @HubbubUK so that we can do something about it.

It was SUCH a privilege to be able to gather this *incredible* group of people respresenting different stakeholders in the question of the proliferation of city networks, dangers of competition and the need for a more cooperative ecosystem of networks. To be continued!

❓Cities as the new frontier for Human Rights (Dr. Sarah Spencer). But, are we overestimating the number of committed cities? What are the real capacities of municipalities? #CitiesofRefuge2022
