Bankwatch

ended

CEE Bankwatch Network is formed by 16 grassroots members in 14 countries of central and eastern Europe with more than 25 years of experience in transforming public finance and environmental and climate policies to work for people across Europe and beyond. 2022 Bankwatch Work program is designed as a part of three years action and thus, will contribute to the same objectives as the 3 years work program submitted. It will foster systemic transformation towards zero-carbon, resource-efficient, and biodiversity-rich economies in the EU by shifting the use of public finance in line with the objectives and targets of the European Green Deal. Bankwatch’s working method involves promoting public participation, transparency, expert-based and citizen-led decision-making on projects and plans that are financed by EU financial instruments. Our activities involve case-based research, expert analyses, awareness-raising, capacity building on a national, regional and local level in the EU and beyond. We do provide platforms and channels for the citizens activist and local NGOs to reach the decision-makers with their concerns and proposals. Our programme includes four Work Packages: 1) Organisational Development 2) Climate Change Mitigation 3) Nature and Biodiversity 4) Clean Energy Transition Circular Economy and Quality of Life objectives of the LIFE programme will also be served by our work programs through the 3 Thematic work packages.
