£750,000 Dundee Climate Fund launches

Dundee has launched a new participatory budgeting (PB) fund to support climate action in the city. With £750k available, the fund is now open for applications until 20th November 2022.

Groups are invited to apply with a focus on:

  • Energy: reducing consumption, promoting energy efficiency, use of renewables.

  • Transport: encouraging active travel, decarbonising transport

  • Waste: reducing waste, recycling, reusing resources.

  • Resilience: improving greenspaces, biodiversity, local food growing.

  • Community Engagement: increasing public awareness, engaging communities and young people in climate change.

Dundee citizens will determine which projects the funding will be awarded to. While each application will undergo an internal review process to ensure it meets the feasibility and eligibility criteria, projects meeting these criteria will then be shared online for the public to vote on.
