National Stakeholders Identification (Spain)

[GCRI]

Welcome to the National Stakeholders Identification Thread for Spain!
This thread identifies and maps key stakeholders across sectors to support climate action, disaster risk reduction (DRR), biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development efforts in Spain. We aim to engage relevant actors to mobilize climate finance and strengthen partnerships for the Global Risks Forum 2025 and other global frameworks, including the Santiago Network for Loss and Damage.

How You Can Contribute: Identify Stakeholders Across the Quintuple Helix Framework
1- Academia and Research: Universities, think tanks, and research institutions focusing on sustainability, climate policy, DRR, and biodiversity in Spain.
Example: Institutions like Universidad Politécnica de Madrid, the University of Barcelona, and research centers such as the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the Basque Centre for Climate Change (BC3).

2- Industry and Business: Corporations, startups, and financial institutions involved in renewable energy, green technologies, and climate finance.
Example: Wind and solar energy companies, green tech startups, banks offering green investment products, and industries working towards sustainable practices.

3- Civil Society and NGOs: Non-profits, advocacy groups, and community organizations working on conservation, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development.
Example: NGOs like Greenpeace Spain, Ecologistas en Acción, and community groups focused on local biodiversity conservation or urban climate adaptation.

4- Government and Public Sector: National, regional, and local government agencies involved in climate policy, environmental regulations, and disaster management.
Example: Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO), regional environmental authorities, and local municipalities working on resilience-building.

5- Natural Environment: Organizations managing ecosystems, protected areas, and promoting biodiversity conservation across Spain.
Example: National parks management bodies, conservation initiatives in the Pyrenees, and efforts to protect endangered species like the Iberian lynx.
