The EU-funded sustainable energy project CES-MED is taking part in the second edition of the ‘University’ organised by the Moroccan EcoCity Association (AMEV) this week in Kenitra, Morocco, under the theme “The role of elected representatives in sustainable urban development”.
The objective of the University is to present the best experiences and practices carried out by the association’s cities in the area of sustainable urban development in Morocco, and to develop the knowledge of elected representatives at national level in legislative, regulatory, organisational, and technical matters, as well as regarding communication and public awareness.
The CES-MED team will present the project’s experience and impact in Morocco and the MENA region, the application of SEAPs (Sustainable Energy Action Plans), as well as the Covenant of Mayors initiative.
The “Cleaner and Energy Saving Mediterranean Cities” (CES-MED) project is an EU-funded regional initiative set up to provide training and technical assistance support to local and national authorities in the southern Mediterranean region, with a view to helping them respond more actively to sustainable policy challenges.
CES-MED ensures that the actions proposed match with the objectives of the Covenant of Mayors: to reach and even go beyond the European objective to reduce CO2 emissions by 20% thanks to the improvement of energy efficiency and the increased use of sustainable energy.
