Green Economy Transition

纽汉理事会制定了雄心勃勃的目标，到2030年实现碳中和，到2050年实现温室气体净零排放。《2022年公司计划》-建设一个更公平的纽汉-中规定了明确的政治承诺，并制定了实现这一雄心的优先事项和行动，包括优先支持向绿色包容性经济过渡。最近完成的《绿色经济行动计划》阐述了在纽汉实现绿色经济（GE）的案例、战略机遇和潜在的后续步骤。它强调，在未来十年，纽汉的经济必须过渡到一个为人民和地球提供服务的经济。如果不这样做，将抑制自治市实现净零目标的能力，并使居民没有准备好面对不确定的未来，从新兴机会中受益的能力有限。我们的计划提出了一种创新的参与式方法，使用混合方法和行为心理学研究，建立长期治理和实现长期系统性变革的能力。它将在整个理事会范围内与不同的企业和社区合作，以了解采用可持续做法的障碍，了解和质疑各种看法，并共同制定一项过渡计划，其中将包括四个关键工作方案：两个这样（资源和治理，以及使居民和企业能够、授权和鼓励行为改变）注重沟通，参与和治理，以实现长期的社会技术变革。另外两（加强纽汉在通用电气的战略影响力，并建立更广泛的技能和交付能力）专注于如何改变监管，政策，技术指导和技能可以快速建立变革能力。除了这项工作，通过快速追随者获得技术专业知识的支持，该计划将探索特定部门绿色经济催化中心的潜力，以建立和应对当地-绿色经济中的相关机会。该计划招募的GE领导将在地方当局中担任高级战略角色，直接向社区财富建设总监汇报，并与气候行动总监密切合作，在组织的核心提供领导和宣传。从这个地方，并通过与UEL密切合作，以提供参与和能力建设的开拓性和创新性的方案，该官员将使长期系统和文化变革内LBN和整个市镇必要的有意义的过渡到一个绿色经济。

Newham Council has ambitious targets to become carbon neutral by 2030, and to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050\. There is a clear political commitment set out in the 2022 Corporate Plan, _Building a Fairer Newham_, with priorities and actions targeted to achieve this ambition, including the priority to support transition towards a green, inclusive economy. The recently completed Green Economy Action Plan sets out the case, strategic opportunity, and potential next steps to enabling a Green Economy (GE) in Newham. It underlines that over the next decade, Newham's economy must transition to one that delivers for people and the planet. Failure to do so will inhibit the borough's ability to meet net zero targets, and leave residents unprepared to face an uncertain future with limited ability to benefit from emerging opportunities.Our programme proposes an innovative participatory approach using mixed methods and research in behavioural psychology, to build long-term governance and capacity to achieve long-term systemic change. It will work across the Council and with diverse businesses and communities to understand the barriers to uptaking sustainable practices, to understand and challenge perceptions, and to collectively build a transition plan.This will incorporate four key programmes of work: two of these (resource and governance, and enabling, empowering and encouraging behaviour change amongst residents and businesses) focus on communications, engagement and governance to enable long-term socio-technical change. The other two (enhancing Newham's strategic influence in the GE, and building wider skills and capacity to deliver) focus on how changes to regulation, policy, technical guidance and skills can quickly build capacity for change.Alongside this work, supported by Fast Followers access to technical expertise, the programme will explore the potential of sector-specific Green Economy catalyst hubs to build and respond to locally-relevant opportunities in the Green Economy.The GE Lead recruited in this programme will play a senior, strategic role in the local authority, reporting directly to the Director of Community Wealth Building and working closely with the Director of Climate Action to provide leadership and advocacy at the heart of the organisation. From this place and by working closely with UEL to deliver a pioneering and innovative programme of engagement and capacity-building, the officer will enable long-term system and cultural change within LBN and across the borough necessary for a meaningful transition towards a green economy.
