TAP is: • Embedded within the scope of the Local Government Climate Roadmap, • Mo3vated by the “Lima-‐Paris Ac*on Agenda” of the COP20 and COP21 Presidencies, • Encouraged by the NAZCA PlaAorm operated by the UNFCCC Secretariat, • In support of the Compact of Mayors and the Compact of States and Regions.
TAP is developed: • In collabora3on with networks of local and subna*onal governments (ICLEI, R20, UCLG, C40, Euroci3es, CEMR…) • In synergy with the members of the Ci*es Climate Finance Leadership Alliance (CCFLA) (e.g. AFD, GIB, WWF, GEF, WB) • In partnership with other ins3tu3ons.
TAP is launched and managed by ICLEI – Local Governments for Sustainability and will be presented at the COP21 Pavilion co-‐hosted by City of Paris and City of Bristol –European Green Capital 2015.
The TAP aims to: • support climate investment in urban areas over the next ten years • increase the quality and scope of local and regional climate ac3on • create support mechanisms to assist ci3es and regions in designing bankable and transforma*ve projects • contribute to the elabora3on of new finance mechanisms for local and regional climate ac3on • create trust among sub na3onal governments, financing ins3tu3ons and investors, also to lower the current percep3on of risk • support regular monitoring and repor*ng of project implementa3on developments • encourage mul*-‐level coopera*on and governance in the area of climate mi3ga3on and adapta3on • raise visibility of local and subna3onal climate ac3on at the na3onal and interna3onal level.

Type of Projects
TAP Criteria and Selec*on Process
The Transforma*ve Ac*on Program (TAP) calls for project applica*ons from subna*onal authori*es that are ambi*ous, cross-‐cufng, and inclusive -‐ our defini*on of transforma*ve.
"Fast-‐track Transformers” “Post-‐2020 Transformers”
• Ready-‐to implement, fully designed projects/ac3on plans with an iden3fied need for funding (investment and/or grants)
• Projects/ac3ons plans with a clear budget, clear ac3on plan and management concept
• To be implemented pre-‐2020
• Well-‐designed project concepts • Iden3fied need for funding, capacity building,
technical advice, strategy development, finance exper3se, etc.
• To be implemented post -‐2020

Criteria for TAP Projects
Defining the Transforma*ve Poten*al of Projects
Ambi*ous Cross-‐cufng Inclusive
First-‐3me projects/ ac3on plans
that wi l l serve a meaningfu l percentage of the popula3on
OR
Exis3ng projects/ ac3on plans
that will be scaled up and that will serve an increasingly large amount of the popula3on/ jurisdic3on area/etc.
People
Demonstrate how ci3zens, in par3cular those iden3fied from disadvantaged communi3es, will benefit in the short-‐ and mid-‐term, e.g. urban poor, unemployed, elderly, youth, women, ethnic minori3es, etc.
Place
Improve different aspects of the loca3on by op3mizing the use of local resources [air, water, waste, land, biodiversity / ecosystems, energy] across services and sectors
Planet
Contribute to na3onal and global sustainability goals (SDGs)
City administra3on
Coordinate within the city administra3on, i.e. cross-‐departmental coordina3on processes and mechanisms have to be in place to assure effec3ve project implementa3on and financing
Civil society
Engage ci3zens and local stakeholders ac3vely, encouraging their par3cipa3on in the design, implementa3on and monitoring of the project.
Mul3-‐level governance
Establish concrete efforts to foster collabora3on and coopera3on wi th govern-‐menta l stakeholders at all governance levels: municipal, local, sub-‐na3onal, na3onal, regional
Business
Reach out to local business and industry to s3mulate green growth in the local private sector
TAP applicants should have the poten*al to transform society, and par*cularly respond to ACI – ambi*ous, cross-‐cufng, and inclusive. These 3 key components of “transforma*ve” are captured in the table.

The TAP – how we work
The TAP consists of 3 key en**es:
§ A mul3-‐disciplinary TAP project team
responsible for the day-‐to-‐day ac3vity coordina3on and implementa3on, closely working with TAP partners.
§ TAP Management Commikee
consis3ng of the core TAP Management and a selec3on of advisors from partners. It is responsible for providing strategic direc3on of the TAP, suppor3ng the broad-‐scale mobiliza3on of ci3es and regions and the pre-‐selec3on of TAP project applica3ons based on completeness of the applica3on form.
§ TAP Project Selec*on Panel
comprised of representa3ves of local and regional government networks, funding ins3tu3ons, development banks, development ins3tu3ons, and others. It is responsible for the selec3on of up to 100 TAP projects/ac3on plans for 2015 that are looking for climate finance, that will receive official TAP endorsement, and that will obtain an opportunity to present their project at the TAP2015 Pavilion at COP21 in Paris-‐Le Bourget.
