This paper presents ARise, an Augmented Reality mobile application designed to enhance public engagement with cultural sites while raising awareness about the local impacts of climate change. Based on a user-centered co-creative methodology involving stakeholders from five European regions, ARise integrates multiple data sources - a Crowdsourcing Chatbot, a Social Media Data Analysis tool, and an AI-based Artwork Generation module - to deliver immersive and emotionally engaging experiences. Although formal user testing is forthcoming, this prototype demonstrates the potential of AR to support education, cultural sustainability, and climate adaptation.Attribution 4.0 International LicenseCCS Concepts: Information systems → Crowdsourcing; Social networks; Computing methodologies → Computer vision tasks; Humancentered computing → Mixed / augmented realityInformation systems → CrowdsourcingSocial networksComputing methodologies → Computer vision tasksHumancentered computing → Mixed / augmented reality10.2312/dh.202533404 pages
