Introduction to the Project

Go Li.EU supports the governance of the Living-in.EU community to build the European way of digitally transforming cities and communities. The project will engage a broad range of different stakeholders and will support the co-creation of an extensive variety of activities. It will aim to find synergies for adequate funding, tackle any legal gaps, contribute to technical alignment and interoperability across sectors and places, as well as helping cities to build capacity. The results of these activities will be measured and communicated, ensuring a higher level of visibility and impact for the benefit of all.

Project Objectives


For Go Li.EU to support cities and communities to unlock their full potential and to play an enabling role in digital transformation, the consortium needs to tackle the following challenges:

- Increasing the uptake of cross-domain interoperable digital solutions (Local Digital Twins, Data spaces, Data Platforms, etc.)

- Sharing expertise and experience through a dedicated capacity-building programme and mutual learning

- Supporting the growth of the community of signatories, supporters and partnerships

- Monitoring the progress of European cities and communities on green and digital challenges

 

ERRIN's Role

ERRIN is responsible for measuring the impact of the project and the Living-in.eu initiative at local, regional and European levels. This will be done through the development of a common set of KPIs, the use of existing tools developed in the field of digital transformation, and the creation of a common monitoring system. Moreover, ERRIN will participate in creating synergies between the various initiatives, projects and stakeholders at local, regional, national and European levels in the field of digitalisation.
