Description
Climate jobs are jobs that arise in, among others, the technical sector as a result of the energy transition. There is a significant shortage of personnel in this sector. Additionally, the types of jobs created are very diverse: from solar panel installers to cleanup assistants to enable insulation to be installed. The Climate Jobs Project aims to connect job seekers with these jobs. It is being investigated whether a neighborhood-oriented approach is feasible and desirable.

Description
Cities 4.0 is a European subsidy project to support Bologna, Eindhoven, Helmond, Leuven, and Turku in their climate mission. The challenge for all cities is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from existing homes and buildings. With an average renovation rate of 0.2% in Europe, it would take well into 2050 for all homes and buildings to be modernized. The cities involved in the Cities 4.0 project want to investigate how the renovation of the existing housing stock can be accelerated. An industrialized solution is needed that provides standardized renovations and partial solutions. To identify solutions, a challenge has been set. The selected parties will work on a pilot in Leuven and Bologna.

Mission Pathways
Representatives of BouwhulpGroep are committed to the following mission pathways:
(De)velopment of new construction chains and application of sustainable building materials in the neighborhoods
In redevelopments and renovations in our neighborhoods, we will ensure that this is carried out in a biobased, circular, and climate-neutral manner.
(Forward) development of new construction chains and application of sustainable building materials
The city centers of Helmond and Eindhoven have a significant urbanization challenge. All new homes that we add will be built in a biobased, circular, and climate-neutral way.
Climate jobs
For the transition to a sustainable economy, people are needed with new knowledge and skills. This applies to construction, the energy transition, and the greening of existing homes. This requires appropriate training programs, both in vocational and scientific education. There are also pathways needed to retrain people or to impart knowledge about sustainability.
Collaboration and knowledge sharing
Together we increase awareness and engage ambassadors, frontrunners, and exemplary projects aimed at the sustainability of business activities in our cities.
Scaling up the new normal in the neighborhoods
Homes need to be quickly made more sustainable so that living costs less water and energy; at the same time, living in well-insulated homes is much more pleasant. To speed things up, we will need to renovate and make existing rental and owned homes more sustainable in a collective manner, relieving the residents of burdens.
