Why does it matter?
ECLECTIC’s overall goal is to enable the design, implementation, and monitoring of integrated, innovative strategic action plans for CE that can effectively contribute to climate-neutral, sustainable, and just planning and development of small and medium-sized EU cities. To foster evidence-based co-creative policymaking, planning and governance in cities, ECLECTIC will build on a quintuple helix approach – involving local research institutions, public administrations, industry, and civil society in four city-region living labs (CiRLabs), and considering the influence of the natural environment in framing objectives, activities and defining impacts.
Project funding: European Partnership “Driving Urban Transitions to a Sustainable Future (DUT)”
Project results: A toolbox, with advanced tools, metrics, and recommendations for decision-makers in municipalities, companies, and civil society, to successfully co-design, implement and monitor evidence-based sustainable, inclusive and just CE action plans, considering context-specific challenges, targets and opportunities, will be developed.
