Life After the Element: Urban and Municipal Resilience as a Climate Challenge

The conference is organized by People in Need and the city of Hodonín as part of the Hodonín Climate Days, which run from May 25 to June 24, 2025. The goal of the conference is to create a platform for sharing experiences and expert knowledge on post‑disaster recovery, climate change mitigation, adaptation, and strategic climate planning.

Our foundation has been actively involved in the long‑term recovery of Hodonín. Immediately after the tornado, we provided emergency assistance to affected families and later expanded our support through long‑term initiatives. We financially support the recovery of affected parts of Hodonín through the large‑scale project Bažantnice Lives! This includes several sub‑projects such as the Nature House, the restoration of the U Červených domků park, the expansion of the sports complex, the revitalization of the suburban forest park, and the construction of a children's town. These activities not only contribute to tornado recovery but also support the city’s development and strengthen its resilience to future climate challenges.

Join the conference and become part of the dialogue on the future of resilient cities and communities! More information and registration are available here.
