Tandem & SSH CENTRE (EU BONUS OZR)

Project Details

Description

The Social Sciences & Humanities for Climate, Energy aNd Transport Research Excellence (SSH CENTRE) project brings together 13leading organisations from across the EU, including: 3 universities, 4 research institutions, 2 stakeholder network organisations, and 4R&I and communications SMEs. Our partners bring world-leading expertise across SSH and STEM disciplines applied to climate,energy and mobility, covering neutrality, community-led initiatives, heating and cooling, circular economy and sufficiency, and digitaltechnologies. Partners will reach 228,880+ stakeholders by leveraging their significant experience in transdisciplinarity and citizenengagement, and networks that span academia, policymakers at various levels, the private sector, civil society and citizens. Ourobjectives directly address the call challenge with an aim to support cross-sectoral collaborations and empowerment of citizens andnetworks towards the development of socially innovative solutions for the EU’s climate transition. Issues related to Open Science,inclusivity and diversity – especially with regards Southern and Eastern Europe and different career stages – are at the heart of theproject. SSH CENTRE will meet its objectives through a set of 7 carefully-designed Work Packages. Numerous attempts of implementing transition pathways across Europe illustrate the difficulty of designing policies that combine efficient climate action and justice considerations. One reason is that the socially diverse, and thus also geographically dispersed demands and vulnerabilities of potentially affected groups do not appear as a well-structured input at any stage of the policy-making process. Therefore, TANDEM will test an innovative transdisciplinary approach in five different case studies in Spain, Belgium, Finland, Poland and Austria that address controversial transition policies in energy and mobility affecting urban and rural populations. The TANDEM project aims to design a methodology allowing policy makers to create and implement inclusive and just transition pathways by involving potentially affected citizens, public authorities, the private sector and other relevant stakeholders..
