Financing the Transition
Financing the Transition activity supports territories in understanding how their climate-neutrality strategies can be transformed into practical, fundable actions. The activity helps stakeholders navigate the complex landscape of EU, national, and innovative funding instruments, providing the knowledge and skills needed to identify opportunities, evaluate financial mechanisms, and match project ideas with suitable funding sources.
Objectives
- Understand the Funding Landscape - Provide an overview of EU, national, and innovative financial instruments relevant to sustainable and decarbonization projects.
- Strengthen Capacity to Access Funds - Equip participants with the skills to search for calls, assess eligibility, and navigate funding portals.
- Promote Financial Literacy for Climate Action - Clarify how grants, loans, guarantees, equity mechanisms, and innovative models can support decarbonisation.
Why It Matters
Financing is often the barrier that determines whether climate strategies remain ideas or become real projects. This module empowers territories to unlock the resources necessary to implement their transition roadmaps, ensuring that climate neutrality is not only visionary and participatory, but economically achievable.
