🌿 The #GreeningCities Partnership is making strides in enhancing Green Infrastructure in cities through five key Actions🌿 They need your feedback on these Actions! Let’s zoom in on three of them: Action 1: Need for Green: Methodology for Quantifying Demand for Green Infrastructure 🌳  ➡ Developing a comprehensive methodology to help municipalities quantify their demand for urban green infrastructure. This methodology serves a dual purpose:   (1) addressing climate adaptation needs while enhancing biodiversity and   (2) providing evidence-based substantiation for green infrastructure implementation.  Action 4: Strengthening Structural Funding for Urban Green Infrastructure 💶 ➡ Recommending the earmarking of resources in future national-level fund regulations for green infrastructure investment and maintenance focusing on the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and the Cohesion Fund for the next EU financial period (2028-2034). Additionally, it will create a one-stop shop tool for easier access to information on available funding for green infrastructure Action 5: Enhancing the Use of Innovative Funding 💡 ➡ Identifying and sharing knowledge on best practices regarding innovative funding to support urban green infrastructure. It focuses on three main areas: (1) public-private partnerships (PPPs), (2) debt-based instruments such as green bonds and loans from the Natural Capital Financing Facility (NCFF), and (3) long-term financial constructions for funding GI projects and maintenance costs. 🗣️ Share your thoughts in the #Public #Consultation of their Draft Action Plan! https://lnkd.in/dU8XYAcV #GreeningCities #UrbanGreenInfrastructure #ClimateAction #Biodiversity #SustainableCities #InnovativeFunding #PublicConsultation #ERDF #CohesionFund #GreenBonds
