Description

This operation will finance an investment programme loan to co-finance 38 multi-sector schemes (cost below EUR 25 million each), included in the current multi-annual investment strategy of the Municipality of Barcelona, and supporting the implementation of the Resilience Model and Climate Plan of the City.

Objectifs

The multi-sector investment programme loan supports the implementation of the Resilience Strategy of the City of Barcelona, comprising mainly interventions in urban infrastructure with a focus on vulnerable groups (e.g. schools, playgrounds, social infrastructure, centres for integrated assistance for elderly people), energy efficiency upgrades in public buildings, urban renewal and regeneration projects as well as sustainable mobility schemes. The project is fully in line with the objectives of the EU Urban Agenda as presented in the Pact of Amsterdam of May 2016, which emphasises the need to combat social exclusion and climate change, as well as to promote energy tranformation and circular economy, among other priorities.
