UP2030 - Interactive toolkit for stakeholder engagement in co-design of visions and pathways towards climate neutrality (D2.4)

This toolkit has been designed based on the methodology used for the UP2030 project, aiming to support cities in driving the socio-technical transitions required to meet their climate neutrality targets by leveraging participatory urban planning and design. It is an interactive platform consisting of a simple checklist of the main stages of stakeholder engagement towards carbon neutrality, from planning to evaluation. Each item on the checklist can be expanded, presenting users with the tools and resources that can inform that particular step of the process.

The tools presented in the toolkit are those proposed and used by the partners of the UP2030 project during their own engagement activities and follow a unified structure to allow users of the interactive toolkit to implement them without further guidance. Each tool/method includes not only a general description and aim but also step-by-step guidance, a list of materials, resources and expertise needed, inclusivity points to consider, and use cases.

In order to make it collaborative and up-to-date, the toolkit itself allows users to suggest tools and/or methods that they would like to see included in the toolkit, along with contact information in case they require assistance or support when using the platform or the tools themselves.
