Projektbeschreibung
Digitale Crowdsourcing-Plattformen für mehr Klimagerechtigkeit
Globale Debatten zu Klimawandel und entsprechenden Maßnahmen sind auf regionaler und globaler Ebene noch immer geprägt von strukturellen Ungleichheiten, da Auswirkungen und Gegenmaßnahmen regional variieren. Crowdsourcing auf digitalen Plattformen ist eine theoretische Möglichkeit zur Förderung individueller Partizipation, und mehrere internationale NRO und Regierungsorganisationen initiierten bereits digitale Crowdsourcing-Kampagnen, um das globale Engagement zu stärken. Das EU-finanzierte Projekt DIGI-EMP untersucht, inwieweit solche Plattformen Menschen, die direkt vom Klimawandel betroffen sind, Selbstwirksamkeit vermitteln können. Das Projekt betreibt qualitative Forschung zu Klimagerechtigkeit und führt hierzu kurzfristige ethnografische Feldforschungen mit dem WWF und UNFCCC, Initiativen zur langfristigen digitalen Beobachtungen in Crowdsourcing dieser Organisationen sowie Fokusgruppen innerhalb dieser Plattformen durch.

Unequal inclusion in climate change debates and decision-making processes remains a significant global problem, perpetuating local and global structural inequalities in experiencing and addressing climate change . In response to this issue, various international non-governmental civil society (INGO) and governmental organisations (IGO) have initiated crowdsourcing campaigns to involve citizens around the globe. Such campaigns provide open calls through digital platforms with varying aims around participation, ranging from individual submissions of climate change data (e.g. photo evidence or disaster tracking) to group submissions of innovative solutions to specific environmental problems. As such, these campaigns aim to provide more participatory processes. They should therefore, in theory, empower individuals through more participatory digitally-enabled processes (= digital empowerment), a notion and hypothesis this project aims to test through the lens of climate justice. It will do so through qualitative research including short-term ethnographic fieldwork with the WWF & UNFCCC; long-term digital observation (and where possible participation, e.g. in group tasks or data submission) in crowdsourcing initiatives by the UNFCCC (= 3 initiatives, drawn from COP27 crowdsourcing actions as part of the Action Hubs) and WWF (= 3 initiatives, “Climate Crowd”; “One City Planet Challenge”); and six to ten focus groups (FG; 1-2 FG in each chosen location) with users of these platforms.
