CIVINET Activity Fund
The CIVITAS Activity Fund is a programme that supports the uptake of sustainable urban mobility measures in Europe by providing financial assistance for specific activities of the CIVITAS National Networks (CIVINETs). Read more about the CIVINETs here.
Activities that are funded via the CIVINET Activity Fund add value to the CIVITAS Initiative’s main assets. They address aspects such as making transport systems and cities more resilient and better prepared to address the negative consequences of disruptive/unexpected events, and/or to improve the accessibility and connectivity of vulnerable and excluded communities and social groups. Activities that contribute to realising cleaner and better transport in cities are also of interest, particularly when they aid the implementation of the European Commission’s Green Deal policy and other strategies.
Additionally, the CIVINET Activity Fund supports CIVINETs with:
- The deployment of innovative mobility solutions in cities through local capacity-building and training.
- Engagement and networking of stakeholders at the local level, so as to overcome language and contextual barriers.
- Involvement of CIVITAS cities in the CIVITAS network.
- Partnering of cities with industry and civil society, in navigating through transition and change.
