Significant public investments are available to achieve the European Green Deal, yet these require proper monitoring and scrutiny.
The webinar showcased how citizens can become part of EU funds’ decision making and ensure these are used to deliver the transformation needed.
The session covered the role of EU citizens as watchdogs, and how and why they are key actors in achieving the goals of the European Green Deal.
The presentations were followed by a Q&A session.
