Twelve municipalities from across Ukraine have been selected for participation in the SUN4Ukraine initiative of the EU Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities Mission.
The announcement was made on 3 December at the conference ‘State of Local Self Government: Challenges and Prospects’ taking place in Kyiv on 2-3 December. The event is organised by the Association of Ukrainian Cities, a SUN4Ukraine partner.
SUN4Ukraine empowers Ukrainian cities to seamlessly integrate Climate Neutrality Plans into their recovery strategies, paving the way for sustainable and resilient urban development. The selected municipalities will receive tailored expert support, participate in a comprehensive capacity-building programme, and be paired with EU Mission Cities for valuable knowledge exchanges.
A total of 105 Ukrainian municipalities of all sizes have expressed interest to take part in the SUN4Ukraine initiative, with the aim of becoming climate-neutral by 2050 at the latest. The twelve Flagship Municipalities were selected among the 33 applications from cities with over 50,000 inhabitants that also expressed an interest to develop city-wide and cross-sectoral Climate Neutrality Plans for the 2050 horizon.
