Expanding & Empowering City Climate Action Across Europe

Expanding and Empowering City Climate Action Across Europe

The project supports cities in their climate journeys, broadening engagement with EU climate commitments. By connecting municipalities to the international reporting platforms and providing strategic resources, the project helps cities adopt bolder climate action plans and strengthen their commitments. Through tailored capacity-building programs and strategic guidance, cities are equipped to lead the way in climate action.This work champions cities as key drivers of global climate progress helping us work towards a greener Europe.
