Report launch ‘No recovery without citizens: why public involvement is key to Europe’s green transformation’

<< Back to Citizen's Observatory for Green Deal Financing page.

The report ‘No recovery without citizens: why public involvement is key to Europe’s green transformation’ was released on 20 June, together with a launch event.

The report shows how Europe’s recovery is not delivering the green transformation because citizens have been marginalised from the design and implementation of these investments. It is published by the Citizens’ Observatory for Green Deal Financing coalition.

Neglecting public involvement will only exacerbate existing inequalities and further erode European democracy. It will limit the fund’s ability to make a truly fair and sustainable Europe a reality.

The report includes country case studies from Bulgaria, Estonia, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Poland and Spain, including information on projects receiving financing despite harming the climate, biodiversity and gender equality.

During the launch event, authors of the report presented key findings and recommendations on how to improve citizens’ involvement both at national and EU level.

Presentations were followed by a Q&A session.
