Summary sheet
The project concerns the design, construction, extension and renovation of secondary schools, vocational schools, and some transversal operations in the Rhône-Alpes region. Investment will be made in infrastructure for both technical and vocational education, as well as for general higher secondary education. Part of the project's investment is targeted towards the Region’s contribution to health and medicine-related higher education.
The aim of the project is to improve education infrastructure and to increase energy efficiency of educational buildings in the Rhône-Alpes region .
The project includes new buildings, extensions and renovation of existing educational buildings. The Directive 2011/92/EU does not specifically mention the need for an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for buildings related to education, but it may be that some sub-projects can be regarded as urban renewal projects and might require an EIA (Annex II of the European Directive). This will be examined during the appraisal.
The procedures for tendering and procurement used by the promoter must comply with the Community directives on procurement (Directives 2004/17/EC and 2004/18/EC amended by Regulation 1874/2004). The procedures will be analysed during the appraisal.
