Contribution
to achieving climate neutrality by 2030 in the participating leading
cities and districts due to the development and deployment of a
comprehensive methodology, including selecting criteria, and model
covering cross-sectoral governance, citizens participations, social
innovation and social entrepreneurship impact, financing and policy
approaches, and an urban digital platform;
- Systemic transformation of cities towards climate neutrality, via support from a European level structure;
- Crossing
of social tipping points and implementation of the Green Deal, through
social innovation that empowers cities and local communities;
- Leading
the transition to climate neutrality by mobilising the demand
(citizens’ needs) and showcasing testing of innovative solutions drawing
from European R&I through a socially inclusive mechanism;
- European
cities moving towards climate neutrality by 2030 through measures that
demonstrate visible substantial reduction of greenhouse gas emissions
and air pollution as part of an agreed pathway to climate neutrality by
2050 or earlier;
- Improved share of sustainable and
active transport modes. Reduced negative externalities of urban and
peri-urban transportation: congestion, pollution and road collisions.
Enhanced multimodality and facilitated use of sustainable and clean
modes of transport.
