The project aims to enhance the contribution of Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) to accelerate the EU’s transition to carbon neutrality by better engaging SSH researchers with stakeholders across research, policy, and business.

Under the project, Knowledge & Innovation (K&I) and Energy Cities launched a programme on Social Sciences and Humanities knowledge brokerage for regional-level governance, involving 6 cities (Čačak, Serbia; Grenoble, France; Arnhem, The Netherlands; Porto, Portugal; Valencia, Spain, and Rijeka, Croatia) in 6 different key topics.

The city of Grenoble, in collaboration with a dedicated team of researchers, will focus its work on sufficiency. There’s a need for new compasses for radical change towards urban and economic models that respect social and planetary boundaries.
