The proposed partnership will enable a just and inclusive transition to a climate-neutral, sustainable and productive blue economy through key intervention areas providing for a healthy ocean, the wellbeing of citizens, and a blue economy that is in harmony with nature and whose benefits are distributed fairly.
The SBEP targets the Green Deal and Digital Europe objectives and contributes to the Global Earth Observing System, by mobilising relevant quadruple helix stakeholders who will co-create and co-deliver knowledge-based solutions and innovative governance models, and by combining financial resources for joint transnational calls and resources for other activities.
The integration of sea-basins initiatives and strategies will ensure that impact is delivered at local, regional, national and international levels.

The UNCHAIN project, ‘urban logistics and planning: anticipating urban freight generation and demand including digitalisation of urban freight’ obtained funding from the Horizon Europe’s Mobility Cluster. The project focuses on breaking down data silos and promoting public-private data exchange across a unified European mobility data space, enabling more informed decisions and greater efficiency. The City of Mechelen is a partner in the project and takes on the role of ‘follower city’: it will work alongside the primary demonstration sites (in Madrid, Berlin and Florence) to maximize the geographical coverage and replicability of solutions across Europe. Mechelen aims to test 2 concrete solutions in the UNCHAIN project, with the aim to help addressing its current and future challenges in urban freight distribution.
