The Municipality of Central Corfu and the Diapontia Islands participated in the online meeting that took place on Wednesday 21st April 2021, for the “Pact of Mayors”, among several municipalities from all over Europe.

The initiative is also supported by the European Commission and the European Committee of the regions.

The meeting has reviewed the ambitions and goals that had been set through the “Covenant of Mayors” in order to harmonize and approach the “European Green Agreement” while the municipalities and the local communities were placed in the center of this “green transition”.

The municipalities were, in the end, invited to take immediate action in order to accelerate and help the transformation of Europe into a fair and climate-neutral continent.

It is reminded that the Municipality of Central Corfu and the Diapontia Islands is already carrying out relevant actions that aim to reduce the carbon footprint of the municipality through the program “100 Intelligent Cities-ICC” in which it participates.

The Municipality of Central Corfu and the Diapontia Islands was represented by the Deputy Mayor for European Programs and project manager of the ICC, Mrs. Panagiota Tzanne, and the scientific advisor and assistant project manager of the ICC, Mr. Victor Dimoulas.

It is noted that the mayor Meropi Ydraiou couldn’t attend the meeting due to commitments (planned trip to Athens).
