The SUN4Ukraine Partnership Programme of the EU Cities Mission launches its activities

On 18 November, the EU-funded SUN4Ukraine project launched the activities of its Partnership Programme, with a dedicated workshop in Munich.  

The programme brings together 12 Ukrainian municipalities selected through a call for expression of interest with 14 mission cities selected from the cohort of the EU Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities Mission. 

The workshop in Munich marked the start of 12 city partnerships designed to help Ukrainian cities prepare Climate Neutrality Plans that blend reconstruction and climate goals. The mission cities will contribute firsthand insights from their Climate City Contract process. In turn, they will access valuable insights from the crisis management and recovery strategies of Ukrainian cities.  

Sustainable Urban Net Zero Network for Ukraine (SUN4Ukraine) is a four-year project of the EU Cities Mission, funded under Horizon Europe. Led by EUROCITIES, the project supports Ukrainian cities with integrating climate goals into their reconstruction plans, as part of the country’s post-war recovery strategy and goal of achieving climate neutrality by 2050.
