The Commission funds technical assistance to prepare a proposal for a Strategic Integrated Project under the Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation sub-programme β€” covering plans such as a National Energy and Climate Plan, a national or regional adaptation strategy, a climate-neutral city or Sustainable Urban Mobility Plan, or a sector greenhouse-gas mitigation roadmap. It wants preparatory work at a large territorial scale, with all concerned stakeholders involved and a coordination mechanism sketched out for the wider funding the eventual plan will need.
