D3.1.2_Sustainable Cities Tool

Cities need indicators standardised, consistent and comparable over time to measure their performance. The Sustainable City Tool (SCTool) is a completely new framework, developed for the first-time within the Sustainable MED Cities project context, useful to assess the level of sustainability at city scale.
SCTool will enhance the capacity of public administration in delivering, implementing and monitoring efficient measures, plans and strategies to improve the sustainability of cities. In the CESBA MED project it has been developed a first set of indicators at city scale but not organised in an assessment tool as SBTool or SNTool. Nevertheless, the set of indicators at cuty scale prepared by iiSBE Italia in CESBA MED has been adopted by UNEP/MAP for updating the application form of the 2nd and 3rd edition of the Istanbul Friendly Cities Award. Funded by the Government of Turkey, the Istanbul Environment Friendly City Award was created in the framework of the Mediterranean Strategy for Sustainable Development (MSSD) to recognize efforts of local authorities in promoting sustainable development in Mediterranean coastal cities. The collaboration between CESBA MED and UNEP/MAP has been one of the more important achievements in the capitalisation of the project. In Sustainable MED Cities, the set of CESBA MED city scale indicators has been updated and organised in a new tool, the SCTool.
