Project summary
Welcome to SMARTFORM: Shaping a Greener Europe Together!
As the world evolves, so must we. The climate crisis demands bold, collective action - and SMARTFORM is here to help on that. SMARTFORM brings together 10 partners across 8 diverse European areas (Region of Western Macedonia, GR; Sligo,IE; Bucharest, RO; Berane, ME; Edinet, MD; Trebinje, BiH; Daugavpils, LV; Beekdaelen, NL), with one common goal: to accelerate the transition to climate neutrality by enhancing local capacities and transforming policy.
The project is led by the Centre for Research and Technology Hellas (CERTH), a leading voice in sustainable mobility, sustainable development innovation, and research-based policymaking.
How We Work

- Area-to-area mentoring: Getting englighted by GPs collected!
- Experience exchange: Study visits, staff exchanges, and peer learning.
- Stakeholder co-creation: Stakeholders working together.
- Research-based innovation: Inspired by Horizon projects results to lead policy instruments improvements.
