The INTENSIFY project innovatively addresses a key challenge for European cities and regions: how to energise citizens and communities to achieve more carbon reduction. The need is both great and urgent. The EU, and thus regions and municipalities, are committed by international treaty to achieve ambitious carbon reduction targets. But public authorities cannot do this alone. First, they directly control only a small % of the emissions; so they must find ways to energise others. Second, the targets are so ambitious that they require significant behaviour change that cannot be imposed on people. Third, the will of the people determines the courage of policy-makers; so a change of attitude (“who owns the problem?”) is essential. Finally, concerted collective action may create the opportunity for innovative financing, thus creating a virtuous circle by incentivising citizens and communities to do more. Efforts must be intensified. The project’s objective is to reduce carbon emissions from all sectors, by empowering and energising local communities. We will improve regional policies by: * analysing partners’ plans through four Thematic Events , * identifying good practices that will improve these plans, studying them through Study Visits, importing them via special workshops and Regional Action Plans. * developing social platforms and other community-engagement mechanisms, using these to reduce carbon emissions in all sectors, and to attract private investment * building the capacity of all relevant public authorities including ERDF Managing Authorities The project’s main outputs will be focused on new methods of community engagement through: * New projects that use local stakeholder platforms to improve local policies and incentivise communal behaviour on carbon reduction issues * Improved governance by delivering policies that have citizen support for more carbon reduction and empower local communities to take action (English)
