Climate Action Regional Offices of Ireland

Driving local climate action,
place by place.

CARO works alongside every local authority in Ireland on climate mitigation, adaptation and a just transition. Start where you live: a region, a council, its climate action plan, and the projects already under way there.

The path to local action

One thread, five steps, no dead ends.

01
Region
Four regional offices, one for your part of the country.
02
Local authority
The council team delivering climate action where you live.
03
Climate action plan
The statutory five-year plan adopted by that council.
04
Projects
What is actually being funded, built and trialled.
05
Case studies
Evidence and lessons other authorities can reuse.

Every item is a CMS-managed entity carrying region and authority metadata, so a project surfaces everywhere it is relevant without ever being duplicated.

Step 05 — Knowledge

Knowledge Hub, restructured

The existing hub holds strong material behind up to five levels of navigation. The proposed structure keeps every page but surfaces it through four intent-led pillars with topic-level entry points.
