4. GREEN AGENDA
1998-2018
Toward sustainable future!!!

5. GREEN AGENDA- THE BEGINING
BACKGROUD ROMANIA 1998-2003
• At the end of the 20th century Milieukontakt International financially
supported by the MATRA program of the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs
supported Romanian civil society organizations working in urban areas with
actively involving citizens in prioritizing environmental issues in their cities
developed a project called “Green Agenda”.
• In the cooperative program between Local NGO “Focus Eco Centre” and
Milieukontakt International, Green Agenda designed and was applied for the
first time in eight (8) communities in four (4) micro regions.
• Green Agenda became a methodology for civil society organizations working
on community development from the perspective of sustainability Inspired by
the Local Agenda 21, 12 steps were identified in the development of a vision
for the community resulting in a local action plan.
“People in the micro-region have begun
to understand that they do not have to
wait for solutions from outside their
community or from local authorities.
They can get personally involved in
finding solutions for their problems.”
Sorin Abrudan
Member
of Working Groups

6. FOLLOW UP
GREEN AGENDA
PROTECTION OF NATURAL AND CULTURAL VALUES
CROATIA 2002-2005
• Again with support from the MATRA program of the Dutch Ministry of
Foreign Affairs, a Green Agenda program was launched in 2002 in Croatia.
• Milieukontakt cooperated closely with Croatian partners Green Istria in
Istria and Zeo Nobilis in Medjimurje implemented Green Agenda process in
eight (8) local Communities.
• One of the outputs of this program was the first “Manual Green Agenda
in Croatia, theory and practice”, described for the first time the Green
Agenda process in 14 steps based on Strategic Environmental Analysis,
Local Agenda 21 and experience with Green Agenda in Croatia and other
countries

7. BEGINNING OF GREEN AGENDA
- ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTIONSHARING IDEA
Moldova (2004-2006)
- 4 Municipalities
Kyrgyzstan (2005-2007)
- 4 Municipalities

8. Western Balkans (2007 -2010)
• In 2007, with the support of the Regional Programme on
Environment for the Western Balkans of the Dutch Ministry of
Foreign Affairs, Milieukontakt began the most ambitious Green
Agenda program
• When the project was finished at least 16 Green Agenda
were prepared and adopted: Albania (3), Kosovo (2), Macedonia
Montenegro (3), and Serbia (5) and 7 more developed, Bosnia
Herzegovina (3) Macedonia (3), Kosovo (1).
• The whole program was supported by a capacity building program
with local trainers who themselves were trained by international
trainers from the Milieukontakt International Trainers team.

Municipal Climate Change Strategies Project
ABOUT USAID MUNICIPAL CLIMATE
CHANGE STRATEGIES PROJECT

11. PROJECT OUTPUTS
1) Improve Local Democratic Processes
• Increased civic activism;
• More responsive local governments;
• Increased cooperation among CSOs, citizens, and local governments;
and
• Increased CSO involvement in policy and oversight
2) Increase Capacity to Adapt to Climate Change
• Improved local policy environment for climate change;
• Reduced emissions of greenhouse gases by municipalities;
• Increased resilience of stakeholders to climate change
• Increased citizens’ awareness of climate change

12. APPROACH
• The project approach addresses both, the need to strengthen civil society and the need
to raise awareness, boost activism, and bolster local resilience to global climate change.
• Using an innovative methodology called the Green Agenda Process (GAP), this process
brings together stakeholders, including CSOs, citizens, the private sector and municipal
authorities, to develop a consensus-based strategy and action plan to address
adaptation to climate change and mitigation of its effects.
• While fostering resilience to climate change (CCR), the project strengthens the linkages
between local authorities and the community by boosting civic activism.

13. PROJECT COMPONENTS
COMPONENT 1: Community Engagement through the Green Agenda Process
• Participatory Green Agenda method, an innovative methodology that brings together citizens,
CSOs, private sector representatives and municipal authorities to identify the environmental issues
of greatest concern to their community;
• Develop a consensus-based long-term strategy and action plan to address those concerns;
COMPONENT 2: Capacity building -- The project assesses the capacity of each community to implement
its long-term
• Strategy and brings in experts to address identified community needs;
• Improvement of knowledge on specific topics related to environment and climate change
• Raising Public Awareness about the Climate Change
• Monitoring the implementation of the CC Strategy;
COMPONENT 3: Urgent actions / Pilot projects :
• Designing and implementing small-scale urgent actions and
• Larger, pilot projects that help municipalities see immediate results and diminish the community’s
vulnerability to climate change.

OWNERSHIPSTRATEG
CAPACITY
The local stakeholders identify the values
of the community. The main idea is to set
focus on the things the locals are
important and proud of, rather than
focusing on problems.
Open to everyone
who shows interest,
to participate
regardless of their
level of knowledge
and expertise
All steps are taken by the
local population, and based
on their priorities, needs
and desires. Because of this,
all citizens are truly
motivated by the inclusion
of their plans.
A document or a strategy that is based on
consensus, addressing the needs of
participants in the process, including an action
plan of identified measures to adapt and
mitigate the effects of climate change is
prepared.
Building capacity is necessary to ensuring
local ownership and encouraging local people
to take responsibility for their own sustainable
development and thus to improve the quality
of life of current and future generations

17. GREEN AGENDA GOALS
• Improving Public Participation in Decision-Making
Process at Local Level
• Analysis the level of community development in the
context of environmental protection and adaptation to climate change;
• Analysis of the vulnerability to climate change in the
context of local sustainable development
• Creating a Community Vision and strategic approach to adaptation
to climate change and its mitigation
• Raising awareness of the local population on environmental issues,
sustainable development and climate change

• Identify and prioritize the FUNCTIONS OF THE VALUES;
• Create a short description for each function;
• Select at most three functions that are most important for the
value;
• Identify and MAP THE INPUTS OF THE FUNCTION (inputs are
things that are needed to achieve the function, e.g., roads,
water, energy, food, humans, equipment, or a building);

38. DETERMINE TRENDS AND DEVELOP SCENARIOS
• Determine CLIMATE STRESSORS and NON-CLIMATE STRESSORS on inputs
and outputs
• Identify whether each input and output is EXPOSED to each climate stressor
and non-climate (typically yes or no answer) and record answer in matrix
• Summarize historical trends of climate stressors (precipitation/ temperature),
non-climate stressors (climate/ pollution), emissions (GHG inventory), and
important inputs (water usage/ food production) to determine trends
• Select most significant trends
• Develop future scenarios (~2025) for the most significant trends (use climate
tool for climate stressors, create register for emissions

DETAIL ASSESSMENT OF PROBLEMS
AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS
(VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT)

46. ASSESSING CLIMATE IMPACTS
• Determine which inputs and climate stressors will be included in the
impact assessment using information from the previous step.
• Assess whether each inputs is SENSITIVE TO EACH CLIMATE
STRESSOR (typically high, medium, or low) and record answer in matrix
• Summarize the impacts that climate stressors will have on the inputs
(e.g., extreme precipitation will cause flooding of fields, which will result
in damage and destruction of tomato crops)
• Consider how non-climate stressors will interact with or further impact
inputs

IMPACT
The combination of exposure and
sensitivity dictates potential impact.
It is important to consider non-
climate stressors as they can
exacerbate potential impact.
Example:

step
6 • Assess the Current ADAPTIVE CAPACITY of each input (typically
done by high, medium, low) and record answers in the matrix
Exposure Sensitivity
Potential Impact Adaptive Capacity
Vulnerability
Adaptive capacity is largely determined by available resources and the ability to take
advantage of opportunities and to take action to cope with stressors. It is comprised of
a number of dimensions, including information, social capital, financial capital,
institutional capital, and ecological resilience.

51. DETERMINE CLIMATE-RELATED
PROBLEMS AND RISKS
• Review the results of the climate impact assessment together with the
analysis of adaptive capacities to determine the most significant
climate vulnerabilities or “problems”
• Summarizing the causes of these problems by identifying why they
are a problem and specifying the drivers of the problem
• Identifying the most significant problems – including both the most
vulnerable inputs and the largest emitting inputs
• Scale the risk of the problem for the Community.
step

52. SET THE COMMUNITY CLIMATE
CHANGE VISION
• Have all working groups gather to discuss the results of the Steps 4-7 –
each working group may give a presentation summarizing the biggest
problems and their causes
• Set the community climate change vision using the information from
each of the working groups (this will likely focus on ensuring a climate-
resilient and low emissions community)
• Set goals for the vision by identifying the biggest problems that need to
be addressed – e.g., if water was determined to be extremely vulnerable
to future climate conditions then ensuring climate-resilience of water
supply may be a goal; alternatively if emissions from energy was the most
significant source of emissions then reducing emissions to energy may be
a goal

54. IDENTIFY MITIGATION AND
ADAPTATION MEASURES
• Develop a list of measures that will support the goals and the vision from
Step 8 that are relevant to your value (within WG)
• Identify measures that support mitigation – e.g., increasing energy
efficiency within public buildings or building
• Identify measures that reduce vulnerability or increase resilience – these
include measures that reduce exposure and sensitivity and enhance
adaptive capacity
• Be sure to include diverse types of measures – e.g., policy, good practices,
capacity building, and infrastructure
