The political justification for activities under The political justification for activities under H2020 CB/MEP

To support the implementation of H2020 with a special focus on environmental mainstreaming, by addressing the following bl problems:

low political priority given to the environment;

p p y g ;

insufficient integration of environment in the different sector

policies (agriculture, tourism, transport or energy, water, industry, development etc) and lack of inclusion of the different actors from development etc) and lack of inclusion of the different actors from local to international level;

Insufficient capacities and resources at institutional and civil

i l l society level.

Environmental integration and mainstreaming under the Environmental integration and mainstreaming under the H2020 CB/MEP

Environmental mainstreaming is one of the obj ectives of the H2020 CB/ MEP Environmental mainstreaming is one of the obj ectives of the H2020 CB/ MEP .

to facilitate and create the enabling environment
not only of the CB Component of H2020 but of the entire Horizon 2020

Initiative while being an “ end goal” in itself Initiative, while being an “ end goal” in itself. Three tools will be used within the H2020 CB Component: (i) advocacy for inter-ministerial cooperation through awareness campaigns, briefings and help to those in the countries who work towards this direction, (ii) capacity building activities (trainings, etc.) for authorities at various levels of governance and stakeholders/ civil society involvement, etc. (iii) the implementation of the communication and visibility strategy, which includes also awareness campaigns as well as links to formal, non formal and informal education on relevant issues at various levels (e.g. sustainable development, sustainable consumption and production, etc.)

Methodology in drafting the Capacity Building and Methodology in drafting the Capacity Building and Environmental Mainstreaming Work Programme (I) The Work Programme is based on a complex process of The Work Programme is based on a complex process of integration of priorities identified through:

a desk study on the environmental profiles of the

y p countries,

inputs from experts of the Consortium,
inputs received during the 14 country missions and

consultations involving more than 500 persons representatives of governments and all stakeholders representatives of governments and all stakeholders,

Concerning the Capacity Building Work Programme:

Concerning the Capacity Building Work Programme:

▫ use of innovative and flexible types of activities is

imperative; p

▫ the development of clear guidelines for the selection

f beneficiaries (trainees) is crucial;

▫ more emphasis should be on ToT (Training of Trainers)

Proposed guidelines for the selection of Proposed guidelines for the selection of participants (II)

For maximum efficiency the participants/ trainees of each capacity building activity will be agreed by the H2020 CB/ MEP Team and Consortium Members in consultation with the key actors in the partner countries (H2020 Focal Points, EU Delegations, other focal points, key stakeholders, etc). The same applies for the selection of the tools and methodologies to be g used in each activity.

The overall goal of the The overall goal of the H2020 Communication and Visibility Strategy

The overall goal of the CS is to provide communication support to all groups and actors involved in the implementation of the H2020 Road Map and Work Plan towards the de-pollution of the Mediterranean by Map and Work Plan, towards the de-pollution of the Mediterranean by the year 2020. It also provides for appropriate visibility of the H2020 activities and i i i i l i i d messages aiming at encouraging environmental integration and mainstreaming at government/ intergovernmental level and beyond, facilitating all stakeholders and the general public to achieve the goal of the H2020.
