Why this session?

Timely, reliable information is vital to tackle climate change. But it’s not always easy to find, navigate or use.

MAIA knowledge tools bridge the gap between you and what’s out there by transforming how you access, navigate and process information. This improves knowledge sharing, streamlines research and helps break down silos, empowering action.

• MAIA Connectivity Hub: A smart, user-friendly search-and-discovery tool powered by the MAIA Climate Change Taxonomy. Access climate change resources from across Europe — all in one place.
• SummarAIse: An AI-powered tool that helps you quickly uncover the most relevant insights by extracting key terms and summaries from climate-related documents.
• MAIA Discovery Services: An easy-to-use platform that matches climate innovators and solution providers with end-users seeking knowledge, data or collaboration.

What to expect

The first MAIA Knowledge Tools Launch Event is a dynamic online session designed to explore and demonstrate how these tools support climate knowledge brokering, decision-making and research.

The webinar offers a unique opportunity to explore the potential of these innovative tools, which have been specifically designed to meet the needs of climate action practitioners and researchers. 

The session will feature an introduction to each of the tools by their developers, followed by a chance to ask questions and follow up.

Afterwards, we’ll ask you to share your feedback via a short survey so we can continue to make the tools more relevant to your needs.

Who should attend?

This session is ideal for anyone working with or seeking climate-related knowledge, data, communities, solutions or partnerships, including:

• Researchers
• Policymakers
• Innovators
• Knowledge brokers
