The call for expression of interest aims at identifying actors in the different themes of the Climate Plan who wish to join the driving group of the Local Climate Assembly, called 'Steering Coalition'.

The Local Climate Assembly will be responsible for steering and monitoring the territory's climate objectives. It will also ensure that the dynamics are amplified by developing the action plan and by federating a maximum number of actors around the climate objectives.
