Call for new ICRP (Initiative for Climate Resilient Planning) members

Are you passionate about empowering planners to address the pressing challenges of the climate crisis?

ISOCARP’s Initiative for Climate Resilient Planning (ICRP) is looking for 4+ new members to join our growing team of volunteers. This is an exciting opportunity for members to further their engagement with ISOCARP for an initial duration of one year to support ongoing activities in the following roles:

• COP/IPCC Senior Activity Lead: A person with 7+ years of experience that understands the international climate policy space and can support ISOCARP’s delegations to Climate COPs and similar events, as well as ISOCARP’s contributions to the LGMA constituency. The role includes coordination with other members of ISOCARP and ICRP, external partners, and the UNFCCC ecosystem.
• Partnerships & Outreach Senior Activity Lead: A person with 5+ years of experience and a good understanding of the international urban development system, skills in donor relations and communication, that can advance the partnerships of ICRP to, for example, raise funds to cover travel expenses for ICRP’s youth representatives and/or members from the Global South.
• Two Certification Junior Activity Lead: Research-oriented urbanists, including students, that can support the existing team in conducting research about existing training, capacity development, and accreditation systems that can inform the design of ISOCARP’s climate resilience planning accreditation scheme.
• Activity lead for a new activity: Do you have an idea that is not covered by the existing activities? Please fill out the form and describe your idea as well as you can. Anything that is aligned with advancing climate resilience planning is welcome. For questions, reach out to climate@isocarp.org*

Interested? Please fill out this online form.We looking forward to hearing from you. *Please note that aside from the defined roles, we are currently unable to host any other roles that do not have a clear vision for a new activity to ensure that ICRP remains effective and grows slowly.
