Nantes Grand Débat - Great Debate
country
France
Goal
"In 2014, Mayor of Nantes and 23 other mayors in the Metropolitan Council decided to mobilise a broad range of stakeholders to build a shared roadmap for the energy transition and climate neutrality.
It was launched in Sept 2016 for a duration of 200 days and it covered the whole Nantes Metropolitan area. The investment was of 630 000 euros (basically 1 euro/citizen).
The organisation team was composed of 5 civil servants + 4 citizens.
A mobile pink container was used to share ideas.
There was a massive mobilisation via social media: hashtag #NantesTransitions
The debate had massive communication and visibility as you can see in the pictures.
In total 40 000 inhabitants engaged and 5 000 in an active way. There were 10 crowdfunding campaigns, 5 new projects and so on.
