The partners of the Project ENLARGE launched their first dissemination action last 20th of June, in the city of Mestre, as a moment to present some of the key outcomes reached by the project in its first phase of implementation.

***
The event was organised in the framework of the EU Sustainable Energy Week, led by the Association NordEstSudOvest, and it was an opportunity to discuss with more than 50 stakeholders (local authorities, civil society associations, experts, academics, ordinary citizens, etc.) from all across Veneto Region the added value of participatory processes in the co-design and co-creation of sustainable energy policies.

ALDA was represented by Marco Boaria, Head of Resources and Development Unit, who showcased ALDA’s experience in promoting communities’ development through stronger citizen participation mechanisms. The event offered the opportunity to debate and exchange experience and good practice related to models of participatory governance in the field of sustainable energy and strongly contributed to the mapping action within ENLARGE.

ENLARGE is a two-year project funded by the Horizon 2020 programme aiming at at exploring existing models of participatory governance in the field of sustainable energy and, in particular, their legitimacy, effectiveness, sustainability and success mechanisms, by drawing together theoretical knowledge and on-the-ground experiences. The key outcome will be the production of an interactive knowledge tool to raise awareness among public administrators about different alternative participatory approaches, methodologies and tools, and the potential consequences of these alternative scenarios based on concrete experiences and pragmatic examples.
