Becoming climate-neutral by 2050 is not a task to be mastered by some voluntary action here and there, but it needs concerted and streamlined climate action, reporting and monitoring.To enable the world to face the crisis we need employees with skills to roll out purposeful, fact-based, effective and bold climate action on municipal, regional and company level throughout Europe. Although the internet is full of resources, tools and services to support climate action, yet climate managers from municipalities and companies cannot draw from these resources, because the information is scattered in many different sites and the intended purpose and use of these services is not intuitively clear and difficult. This project will develop a customized VET training to close this urgently missing gap on the educational landscape covering: 1.climate action during the digital transformation: knowledge on how to use digital tools and resources for campaigning climate action on mitigation, adaptation and resilience.2.climate data literacy: skills for data analyses, collection of climate data, basic understanding on mathematics and statistics, monitoring and assessment of the impacts of climate action to be able to plan, monitor action and impacts and report on them.3.a comprehensive overview of digital services available in a repository to support their adequate choice and use to be able to come up with alternative greener ways of implementing the required climate activities.Our TARGET GROUPS are “climate managers”. While their exact job title is varying (Sustainability Manager, CSR Manager (corporate social responsibility)), ESG Manager (environmental social governance), Climate and Energy Officer) their job profile is clear: responsibility for climate action, climate communication and monitoring - in terms of renewable energy produced and greenhouse gas emissions reduced. Climate managers work in municipalities, regional governments or entities of the private and public sector - they are needed everywhere due to current and upcoming obligations of climate/sustainability reporting requirements in all sectors, just as financial reporting.With the CINAMON education package, we want to skill up today’s climate managers parallel to their occupation, as well as those striving for this new work assignment – with hundreds of thousand of job vacancies upcoming due to new legislations.The consortium consists of four NGOs dedicated to climate education and action and a company deeply involved in provision of digital services: Climate Alliance Austria, Climate Alliance Europe from Germany, REFLEX from Hungary, Alleanza per il Clima Italia and the research-based SME akaryon from Austria team up to spice up digital skills for climate action and monitoring. This partnership is ideal to meet the given challenges of accelerated urgencies on climate action and the requirements of digitalization and sustainable development. Partners combine multi-year international experiences, profound and complementary interdisciplinary knowledge, management, pedagogical and digital skills as well as a close connection to the target groups in different European countries together with awareness on existing and upcoming climate regulatory frameworks on national and EU level. There are few other actors who could deliver on these results with the proposed cost-benefit-ratio. Due to the digital character of the developed educational package the impact can easily be upscaled as demand rises to make a crucial impact on European climate action.<< Objectives >>Our vision: We strive to educate, skill up and empower climate managers through the acquisition of digital competencies for climate action and communication in the field of mitigation and adaptation; and by building capacity to implement science-based processes - with the help of digital services and tools - to work in their respective work environment or sphere of influence on greenhouse gas reduction and resilience.The project will deliver capacity building processes with two newly developed e-learning courses. It will leverage effects of digital services already available, often thanks to European funding (tools to account climate relevant data, calculate greenhouse gas emissions, develop conclusions for climate action measures, identify best practices etc.), as learners will be shown how to use those for their climate monitoring and action work on the educational resource repository established in this project. O1 OBJECTIVE 1 is to compile and test a newly developed e-learning course “Digital climate action and campaigning for professional climate managers” combining communication and digital skills in the field of climate action and resilience. O2 OBJECTIVE 2 is to compile and test a newly developed e-learning course “Digital climate impact measurement for professional climate managers” combining digital skills needed to use digital services with mathematical and statistical knowledge to interpret climate relevant data and impact indicators, to plan and evaluate climate action efficiently. O3 OBJECTIVE 3 is to establish a new “Digital Climate Action Repository” - an interactive online platform to provide structured information on already existing digital services, facilitating selection of services as well as their use.O4 OBJECTIVE 4 is to organize, test and introduce digital climate-summits – online events for ongoing capacity building, networking and exchange of knowledge and good practice for climate action and impact measurement –contributing to sustainable maintenance and use of all project outcomes during and after project. O5 OBJECTIVE 5 is to find additional sources of financing to ensure further runs of the course after the project's lifetime to guarantee sustainability of the project's outcomes.O6 OBJECTIVE 6 is to attract attention and interest for the CINAMON project and its results in Europe and beyond and establish a plan for future involvement of the target groups reached during the project.A general introduction to climate issues is NOT an objective – as this education is already broadly available, with some offers from the partners itself. The consortium is very keen to achieve these objectives in spreading to the climate managers profound knowledge on digital communication and data analysis to support awareness raising on climate action and to deliver on climate actions for mitigation, adaptation and resilience. Only educated, skilled and empowered staff equipped with adjusted digital services to support their efforts will be able to take effective vast climate action needed in their field of work and actively engage in the transition to a decarbonized economy smartly combined with the digital transformation. We are convinced, that this project and its results, can make a major contribution towards a sustainable society.<< Implementation >>As all project partners are involved in the processing and elaboration of all results, a regular exchange is necessary and planned with the regular VIRTUAL ONLINE MEETINGS (every six weeks) and TRANSNATIONAL PROJECT MEETINGS (4 in total). The regular and transnational exchange is an important constant for the achievement of all project objectives and to ensure proper project handling and to reach common results in a joint effort. Permanent exchange (including exchange while working on results) will promote the understanding of the political and economic conditions of the different challenges in the different countries.The following objects will be reached by the subsequent and often complex WORK ON THE RESULTS throughout the whole project: O1 and O2 (to establish the two novel e-learning courses) and O3 (to establish the Digital Climate Action Repository). This work will lead to the delivery of the results R1 Curriculum digital climate-action training courses and recommendations / R2 e-learning course Digital climate action and campaigning for professional climate managers / R3 e-learning course Digital climate impact measurement for climate managers / R4 Digital Climate Action Repository. This will include an intense knowledge sharing process within the consortium and CO-CREATION PROCESSES and FEEDBACK LOOPS with the climate managers from the associated partners for the production of these results.The four MULTIPLIER EVENTS “digital climate summits” aim at connecting climate managers, attracting future learners and motivating alumni to keep making a difference and fit to O4 (to perform digital climate summits). O5 (to identify sources of financing for sustainability) will be reached by looking for (public) fundings or gaining revenues from courses held using project results according to the D1 Dissemination plan. Results will be accessible freely. Example approach from the consortium: e.g. CAA is still able to maintain the further development of a course established during a former COMENIUS project by means of funding from the federal states and from the participants themselves.The four MULTIPLIER EVENTS in person are intended to inform stakeholders, especially multipliers about all results of the project; other DISSEMINATION ACTIVITIES are implemented according to the D1 Dissemination plan. These activities are geared to reach Objective 6 – (to attract interest for the CINAMON project and its results). Contributing to O6 will not only depend on our DISSEMINATION activities during the project, but also on establishing and implementing a PM8 Future plan. MANAGEMENT of the project is well-organized. Co-ordinator akaryon has already successfully managed ERASMUS projects and will encompass proven management methods. All partners, although some of them new to the ERASMUS programme, have co-operative project experiences at European level.EVALUATION, summarized in PM7 Evaluation plan, is also prepared in detail for the project activities and management processes as well as for the results. External evaluation for quality assurance of the results is also foreseen and will be subcontracted to relevant universities/research institutions from the fields of digitalization and sustainability.We are convinced, that the political environment with an ever-increasing demand for digital learning courses like ours will boost the effects of this project.<< Results >>The CINAMON project will produce an educational package for climate managers to spice up their digital and analytical skills for climate action and monitoring leading to advanced career prospects and resulting in purposeful, fact-based, effective and bold climate action - required by European policies - across public and private organizations in Europe, thereby raising awareness for climate in the general public.R1 Curriculum digital climate-action training courses and recommendations:The paper will list the learning objectives, didactical approaches, table of contents of all learning modules of the two e-learning courses and overall competencies and skills. The recommendation chapter will sum up the lessons learned by the consortium during the project as potential source of knowledge for other VET providers. R2 e-learning course Digital climate action and campaigning for professional climate managers:The new course, an organic coherent online product, will consist of e-learning modules (open source freely available) and exchange sessions focused on digital climate action and campaigning including eg. fact-based climate communication and digital PR for mitigation / adaptation. R3 e-learning course Digital climate impact measurement for climate managers:This new course, in similar to the one above, will train the learners in data analysis skills to better plan climate action and to assess the impact of climate actions planned or conducted. The latter is the essential skill set for reporting and monitoring climate action according to European legislation. The two courses can be attended one after the other or independently. They will be tested in all partner countries once for evaluation and fine tuning.R4 Digital Climate Action Repository:This digital repository will be an interactive online platform providing structured information on existing digital services (e.g. greenhouse gas monitoring software, climate action catalogues, personal CO2-calculators...). This expandable repository will be designed to support a simplified and qualified choice: First it will include an intelligent search structure, second, for each tool listed a standardized “product sheet” will show the purpose and appropriate application. Third and most importantly, the repository will support transferring knowledge into action, by hands-on ""how-to-use instructions"" (from the service provider as well as from other users). In order to guarantee “objectivity”, the consortium will set up an onboarding process for the tools (to guarantee they are in scope and of sufficient quality/usability) and will moderate posts from users (to avoid unjustified negative comments). MULTIPLIER-EVENTS: During the project, each country will host a multiplier event in person for at least 40 stakeholders of our target groups and an online climate summit for up to 100 participants. The climate summit will consist of a seminar by an expert on a climate topic of current interest or key notes from learners/users on best practices to foster peer-to-peer learning experiences.DIGITAL SKILLS: This project’s results will raise digital skills of trainers and learners. It will underline the importance of online experiences as a source of education in the digital era. Further it will emphasize the importance of intelligent digitalization: all digital “helpers” still need accompanying instructions and educated users that allow them to exploit the tools in order to enfold real-world impacts.EQUALITY: The partners have assured a gender-balanced staff and particular attention will be given to the integration of gender aspects into all project activities and results e.g. gender distribution of speakers at events.CLIMATE ACTION BY CLIMATE MANAGERS: Triggered by the activities of the project, we envision more and better skilled climate managers who will tackle the climate crisis by effectively doing their jobs."

The ultimate objective of the EUCF is to build a substantial pipeline of sustainable energy investment projects across cities in Europe. This will be achieved by providing targeted financial, technical, legal and capacity building support to overcome critical barriers, develop credible investment packages and mobilise finance. Delivering this will require organisational, technical and financial innovation, in particular to bridge the capacity and capability gap for small and medium-sized municipalities. The specific objectives are to: - Provide hands-on locally rooted technical and financial expertise, inspired by ‘best in class’ European practice, to cities to deliver at least 225 credible and scalable investment concepts (hereafter referred to as IC) which should trigger more than EUR 320 M of public and private investment. - Build the capacity of at least 450 public authority staff to develop substantial project pipelines and provide them with tools, networking and knowledge transfer opportunities which will facilitate and accelerate the IC implementation, including via innovative financing mechanisms and project aggregation. - Facilitate access especially for small and medium-sized municipalities to private finance, EU funding streams and similar facilities (e.g. ESIF, H2020-PDA, Elena-EIB) and advisory services such as the EIB Advisory Hub to realise and amplify the expected investments. - Use the successful IC and knowledge of EUCF beneficiaries to reach out to more than 8,000 cities and communities, encourage replication and catalyse further action across European cities.

It will do this by increasing the capacity of EU public authorities to act quickly and decisively. The capacity will be increased by the provision of just the right amount of intelligible information, by training and exchange of experiences of Public authorities and by provision of tools and support to implement and monitor their sustainable energy plans. To move beyond the traditional technical energy manager approach to use the information to engage with decision makers, finance mangers and building users. To make energy more “visible”. To make energy and water date “more exciting” to buildings users. Innovation in terms of using big data analytics to address issues at scale. Big data; thousands of EU public buildings; information for decision makers, finance managers and building users; benchmarking of EU public buildings; and monitoring implementation of Sustainable Energy Action Plans or local Climate Protection Plans. The core of EDI-NET is the analysis of smart meter data from buildings, from renewable energy systems and from building energy management systems (BEMS) using Big Data analytics technologies. The attractive fruit around this core is an online forum to spread knowledge and facilitate exchange of experience and best practice through peer to peer education in a friendly and useful way. The tree that supports and ripens the fruit is the existing European network of Climate Alliance that builds the capacity of EU public authorities to more effectively implement sustainable energy policies. We recognise the smart meter data, by themselves, will not implement sustainable energy policy. However, when combined with on-line discussion forum, local campaigns, awareness raising and peer to peer knowledge transfer it can achieve savings of between 5 and 15 percent; at least 16 GWh/yr, worth over 1.5 M€.

The assessment of innovative financial models is integral to discovering opportunities and identifying and overcoming barriers that specifically local and regional levels face. The project aims to develop a web-based portal that provides diverse practical guidance and match-makes experienced forerunners with less-experienced first-timer authorities. CITYnvest will spread the under-utilized financing models that enable project bundling and aggregation by mobilising the entire value chain at the regional/local level towards Horizon 2020’s energy efficiency goals. To succeed, the project will first tackle public authorities’ lack of understanding and knowledge on innovative financing models for sustainable energy services, especially retrofitting the building stock. Second, CITYnvest’s concrete guidance will ensure in-depth capacity building and training. Third, close collaboration with authorities will trigger innovative financing schemes implementation and mobilise finance for energy efficiency services. Organization of consistent follow-up will monitor progress towards the objective of 37,5 GWh savings/year and other commitments. Finally, the national structures (of CEMR and CA) and invited experts will liaise with the participating public authorities in the capacity building programs to achieve CITYnvest’s goal of ensuring long-term engagement. CITYnvest partners liaise with an Advisory Expert Group and pool of experts to provide the expertise and guidance/training. CITYnvest will further create synergies with other wide-spread initiatives, such as the Covenant of Mayors, linking SEAPS to innovative financing models for energy efficiency.
