REMARKABLE Climate Leaders Achieving Climate Neutrality

The climate emergency and energy transition agendas require clear leadership, ambition and conviction if Europe is to meet 2050 climate neutrality targets. Climate change leadership has undergone numerous changes over the last number of years.

While initially viewed as a high-level focus by only those at the uppermost levels in government, it has now become viewed as an important issue at all levels from local community leaders to presidents. While some communities are trying to focus on mitigation and adaptation strategies, they are frequently lacking the strong leadership that will help them achieve a robust response.

REMARKABLE Climate Leaders build new leadership capacity through a Climate Leadership Programme designed with and for leaders who, through their actions and inspiration, will drive their municipalities, public authorities, communities and regions.

Overall, aiming to accompany the territories of the 7 European regions involved in the project and replicate its activities beyond the project, REMARKABLE Climate Leaders will achieve:

• the training of 120+ actors from multiple sectors,
• 60+ territorial roadmaps,
• 14 new services in support of climate neutrality,
• a network of more than 300 leaders in the sustainable energy fields.
