Revitalising the cityscape with green financing “Leverage sustainability as a means of growth and development” “Valuable insights from Professor Christine Loh” Addressing climate change goes beyond simply putting up signage and enforcing regulations; it calls for a comprehensive approach that includes solutions throughout the entire pathway. The Group always recognises that sustainable financing plays a crucial role in transitioning to a low-carbon economy and liveable city, enhancing social and environmental value in every aspect of our business, while delivering lasting commercial impact. Hear from Professor Christine Loh from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, who share her insights on using green finance for city revitalisation to achieve net zero carbon emissions.

What do Dundee in Scotland and Eindhoven in Netherlands have in common? Both have undergone a huge transformation over the past years, from old industrialism to entirely new urban economies, knowledge-driven and now on the way to carbon-free. They had to re-invent themselves, and in that transition innovative place branding were extensively used, and still is, as a main facilitator, even as a change accelerator. Commissioned by the Just Transition Platform of the European Commission, we have designed a workshop on innovative place branding as a tool for transformation processes. The aim is learning how ambitions, efforts and achievements on sustainability and carbon neutrality, major and minor ones, should be properly embedded into a renovated, comprehensive narrative of the city. This entails, at some point, promoting, curating and wide spreading stories on this matter. Looking outward, such a storytelling will showcase our progress to a Just Transition. Looking inside, the stories will have a demonstration effect to influence people and entities from our communities. First exchange will be with the Aegean island of Limnos on June 18, followed by an online workshop with the Heraklion community on July 3. Hope this could set a standard to other cities and regions wishing to make strategic communication work to support their Just Transition pathways. https://lnkd.in/dXjQ7cQH Iryna Novak Nassos Athanasios Sofos Dimitris Boulotis Manolis Petrakis Stelios Mantzaris Laura Martín Murillo Thanks Nebojsa Gelevski - Bane for the great image.

NZ #council sustainability teams look up... Setting an example of what good #city #sustainability looks like, and how to measure it with context based #indicators that are visually easy to communicate and usefully inform strategy. Nanaimo, 'The Harbour City', is city of about 100,000 people on the East Coast of Vancouver Island. It's City Plan 'Nanaimo ReImagined' is complemented by an excellent Monitoring Strategy, designed with good communication in mind. Having assessed what 100% sustainable looks like across 35 city plan topic areas, the #monitoring and #evaluation approach achieves 2 vitally important things: 1. it shows, as a %, how far city performance has progressed towards a robust definition of a sustainable state 2. the % score identifies the remaining gap to close, which then informs what next steps can be taken to make progress. It's easy to communicate with a doughnut-style dashboard and visual monitoring board showing performance against the 100% targets. I can see this as a powerful tool to inform #LTPs and annual budgeting. Well worth a look if you're seeking some inspiration to adopt more context based indicators that are easy to communicate and drive prioritisation. https://lnkd.in/gaj_tdaf
