CARE4CLIMATE:
Umanotera collaborates as a partner at the project Care4Climate, which is addressing implementation of the operational programme to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2020 (Operativni program za zmanjševanje toplogrednih plinov – OP TGP) that sets out measures to achieve Slovenia’s goals of GHG emissions reduction by 2020 (and by 2030 for sectors not included in the GHG emissions trading scheme such as transport, agriculture, energy consumption in the service sector and households, emissions from the waste disposal). The aim of this project is to promote the implementation of the measures, set out in the OP TGP, by raising awareness, educating and training the key stakeholders.

Within the project we aim to carry out or participate in the following activities: (1) raising awareness about climate change and its effect on Slovenia and promoting good practices for climate change mitigation;
(2) community management of living resources;
(3) training for the transition to low-carbon society;
(4) training for public administration.


Plan B – Initiative for a Sustainable Development:
Project Plan B is a network of Slovenian environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and experts, forming a broad civil society platform for sustainable development in Slovenia, along with other interested stakeholders. The primary objective of the NGO network within Plan B is to support long-term sustainable operation of environmental NGOs and to strengthen the qualification of environmental NGOs in Slovenia in two ways: by encouraging their active role in the democratic processes of policy formulation and in monitoring implementation of policies, and also by encouraging their participation and partnership. A secondary objective of the project is to improve the awareness of citizens and to encourage their engagement in environmentally-oriented public matters.


European Climate Initiative (EUKI): Towards a climate neutral EU: Efficient allocation of EU funds
Umanotera is a collaborative partner at the project Towards a climate neutral EU: Efficient allocation of EU funds. The aim of the project is to contribute to support the efficient use of EU money in the participating countries, highlight best practices and lessons learnt, and widely disseminate these observations both nationally and internationally.

Within the project we aim to carry out or participate in the following activities:
(1) Empowering of civil society organisation incl. capacity building
(2) Knowledge transfer about the current situation on the national level, assessments preparation, as well as the creation of a best practice database.
(3) Delivering policy recommendations and best practice examples for climate-related policy reforms through direct communication to target groups.
(4) Communication campaign

Training and education:

Umanotera has been conducting workshops for young people, companies, municipalities, NGOs and supervisors for many years, where we highlight the challenges of the modern world and together look for their solutions. Participants in the workshops are actively involved, encouraged to critically think and are, through the interactive process, presented with the tools for further research of the discussed topic. Few of the basic workshops (they can be adapted for your group’s needs eg. time constraints, number of participants, content…): “Green jobs”, “Climate connects us all”, “Get to know your lifestyle with a case study: your mobile phone’s life cycle/textiles/water as a common good”, “What tourism do we want in our local community?”, “Sustainable events”, “Green office- consultation when implementing green offices in the companies and organizations”.
