GREENGAGE Citizen Observatories Methodological Framework

The GREENGAGE CO Methodological Framework situates GREENGAGE COs in the European arena of citizen science and provides a comprehensive theoretical description for the development of COs. In-formed by best practises of science-based EU policy innovation it is rooted in a mission-led vision on GREENGAGE COs that suggests the development of Citizen Observatories based on the application of technologies and a distinctive approach on co-creation.

D2.2 & D2.3

Use Cases and Requirements Analysis

This report documents the initial innovation pilot specifications for Bristol, Ørestad/Copenhagen, Gerace, Turano and North Brabant, their associated use cases and requirements for the GREENGAGE project. The Collaborative Requirements Engineering and Stakeholder engagement (CoReS) methodology has been adopted for this purpose. This methodology consists of several steps, namely; a) groundwork and context questionnaires, b) requirements gathering workshops, c) use case-based scenario requirements and d) requirements validation. Based on this methodology, several innovation pilot specifications were first developed, followed by use cases and requirements definition.

D2.4

Smart Governance Models v1

This document provides an overview of GREENGAGE innovation pilots’ specification and states the existing governance models of the pilots. Aims to model the governance processes followed by the pilot cities are to identify how Citizen Observatories (CO) or bottom-up and top-down participatory governance can be effective through GREENGAGE tools and provide essential inputs for agenda setting, policy-making, and decision-making. This document also presents the existing literature on smart governance and how COs have been employed in other projects including GREENGAGE sister projects. 

D2.6 & D2.7

GREENGAGE Technological Requirements

This deliverable provides the technological requirements for GREEN Engine, the digital solution provided by GREENGAGE, to facilitate the collaborative set-up, management, execution, and exploitation of Citizen Observatories’ thematic explorations to provide evidence for policy making and verification. It includes functional and non-functional requirements for the platform together with usage scenarios of such infrastructure by Pilots to understand how the derived requirements will be realized into features of GREEN Engine.

D3.1

Citizen Observer Training: “How to do Research” and CO Toolbox

This report documents how GREENGAGE approached the preparation of recruitment and training materials as well as the delivery of training of those stakeholders who have been involved in setting up GREENGAGE Observatories (GOs). As GOs address urban planning challenges in their interrelation between environmental, social-economic and political conditions, stakeholders require multi-disciplinary and context sensitive training to engage in collaborative research and innovation experiments. Given the timeframe of the project delivery and significant differences between the pilots, GREENGAGE suggests a 2-phased-approach on training to meet these guiding principles. 

D3.2

CO solution mapping to pilots, recruitment and training report

This report follows the development of GREENGAGE Academy within which GREENGAGE Observatories will operate. Firstly, it starts by defining GREENGAGE Observatories as living labs for local policy innovation and GREENGAGE Academy as a platform that enables the interaction and collaboration between people participating in GREENGAGE Observatories but also those outside. In other words, GREENGAGE Academy provides a theoretical, practical and ethical environment for the strategic co-production of GREENGAGE Observatories, setting an exemplary framework for performing the Green Deal and a precedent for Citizen Observatories in general, i.e., extending beyond the scope of the GREENGAGE project. The latter will be crucial for translating the acquired knowledge and lessons learnt into a replication roadmap. Secondly, the report outlines a series of steps undertaken for setting up the necessary infrastructures to support the GREENGAGE Academy as a whole and the GREENGAGE Observatories for each of the GREENGAGE pilots individually

This document provides a detailed account of the activities undertaken during the GREENGAGE project’s first iteration of the piloting phase, focusing on training, campaigning, and community-building efforts. The report describes how these observatories encourage collaboration between citizens, local authorities, and other stakeholders to generate and utilise environmental data. By embracing citizen science and co-creation methodologies, GREENGAGE aims to empower communities to shape policies and actions that positively and actively affect their environment. It also provides an account on how training and campaigning were designed to foster participation, while community-building efforts helped solidify engagement among various groups, so citizen-led initiatives are sustainable and impactful over time. The deliverable outlines the successes and challenges during this phase, focusing on how localised citizen engagement can enhance governance, and illustrating the process and preliminary results of each pilot´s co-exploration.

D5.4

Training and Campaigning Report and Community Building 2

This report documents the second iteration of the GREENGAGE Work Package 5 reporting package, covering the “Consolidation Phase” of the Innovation Action from Month 19 to Month 36. During this period, the project underwent a fundamental strategic shift, moving from “Situated Onboarding” – identifying the right people and places – to “Institutional Integration”, ensuring citizen-generated data was valid, actionable, and integrated into the policymaking workflows of public authorities. The central conclusion of this phase is that the efficacy of Citizen Observatories in achieving the objectives of the European Green Deal depends less on the sophistication of the “GREEN Engine” technology stack and more on the “soft infrastructure” of human resources and governance models surrounding it.
