Q20409 - The Provision of Services for Zero Carbon Cities Project

The City of Manchester has been successful in a bid for the 2nd phase of the URBACT Action Planning network Zero Carbon Cities (ZCC). This programme will work with 6 other cities over a 2 year period to help them use science-based targets and Zero Carbon and Climate Action Plans, in order to contribute to the successful delivery of the Paris Agreement. As part of this work we are looking for a partner to develop and deliver local activity to support Manchester's role in the network, providing additional capacity and expertise to the project co-ordination team. Manchester City Council has considerable experience in project and programme management, but needs to bring in an individual or organisation who can provide capacity around applying science-based targets and developing climate change action plans in a city context.
