Social participation and regeneration. From reactivity to proactivity.

The aim of the campaign is to launch a real public participation process in relation to the battery factory announced in Nyíregyháza in the summer of 2023, for the local government to hold public forums, listen to the people concerned, and for the local community, i.e. the residents themselves, to plan the future of the city.
First, the organisers will launch an information campaign on the environmental and social impact of the project. This will be followed by preparations for a public hearing on the environment and the recruitment of a team of volunteers. In addition to campaigning, community forums will be held to help local people to shape an alternative vision for the future through a participatory process. Finally, a public opinion survey will measure the impact of the activities and the awareness of the population.
This will strengthen local public participation, improve dialogue between stakeholders and the municipality and reduce the environmental and social risks associated with the plant.
