ICLEI Europe’s webinar series for Members explores different ways European cities are making sustainability a reality. Webinars happen once a month from 11:00–12:00 CEST.
Municipal subsidy programs are an effective instrument for municipalities to promote sustainable practices. Yet parts of society often face a variety of structural barriers to benefitting from such programs.
In this session, we will look into ways to both design and implement municipal climate subsidy programs with equity components, thereby ensuring that climate subsidies remain responsive to different lived realities and are able to benefit all segments of society.
The session will feature presentations on the INCLU:DE project's Climate Equity Toolbox, which gives advice on how to design socially just subsidy systems. The City of Heidelberg will further discuss their practical experiences relating to implementation - particularly promoting subsidies through collaboration with local multipliers.
This event is for city professionals and representatives of ICLEI Members only (staff and elected officials working within the city). If your organisation is not a member of ICLEI and is interested in applying for ICLEI membership, please go to join ICLEI.
