Project Description
The Nabeul Ville Verte project has as main donor the European Commission with a budget of 7M Euro. The project contributes to improving the quality of life of Tunisian citizens by facilitating the implementation of effective, affordable and reproducible initiatives for climate change mitigation and adaptation. More specifically, the project accompanies the transition of the Municipality of Nabeul to a greener and more resilient city, through the implementation of the Municipal Action Plan for Access to Sustainable Energy and Climate (PAAEDC) and the promotion of an integrated approach between local actors and public private partnership (PPP), with a leverage effect and a driving effect on other cities in the country. The strategy of action of the project is based both on the construction of infrastructure components of the PAAEDC (e.g. Center for Sorting and Waste Recovery, Public Lighting through renewable energy..etc) that have an economic return, as they are more likely to attract private investment more easily during the project, and on technical and awareness-raising accompanying actions. The project includes the acquisition of equipment and services for a total of over 5.5 M euro.
Institutional partners are the Municipality of Nabeul and the Higher Institute of Technological Studies of Nabeul (ISETN).
