Multi-Level Governance: A Key to EU Climate and Energy Goals

Event Overview

The Multi-Level Governance: A Key to EU Climate and Energy Goals event will take place on March 18, 2025, from 14:30 to 18:30 at the European Committee of the Regions in Brussels, Belgium. This conference aims to highlight the essential role of multi-level governance in the successful implementation of the European Green Deal and the National Climate and Energy Plans (NECPs).

Multi-level governance has been pivotal in drafting the NECPs and will be increasingly important as EU legislation evolves. The European Green Deal emphasizes the necessity for regional and local authorities to meet the objectives set by the European Climate Law. The event will feature discussions on the coordination required between various administrative levels, particularly between national governments and local authorities, to ensure effective policy implementation.

The NECPlatform project has facilitated over 30 multi-level energy and climate dialogues across six EU Member States since 2022, demonstrating practical solutions for overcoming barriers to the Green Deal's implementation. This final event will present findings from these dialogues and offer a platform for stakeholders to engage in discussions about future collaborations and strategies.
