Context

In a context of health, economic and ecological crises, the Government wished to accompany the recovery in the territories, in a perspective of ecological, demographic, digital and economic transition, by creating the CRTE (also called PTRTE in the Grand Est). Within the framework of the agreement with the ANCT, Res publica and Eurogroup Consulting assisted 11 small rural territories in the Grand Est region in the participative development of their Transition and Ecological Recovery Pacts (PTRTE). This support for EPCIs was carried out in close coordination with the departmental prefectures and the Grand Est Region.

Missions

• Analysis of existing work and data on the territory (urban planning documents, statistical data, etc.); and interviews with actors and elected representatives of the territory to consolidate a portrait of the territory and define the need for participation.

• Co-construction and definition of a consultation and mobilisation strategy with regard to the objectives and targets of each territory.

• Facilitation of consultation workshops with public and private stakeholders, both face-to-face and remotely (depending on the context), to define the diagnosis, the orientations and then the actions-projects of the territory for the coming years.

• Support for the drafting of the territorial project through the drafting of reports.

Innovative dimensions of the approach

• Provision of a turnkey participation kit adapted to the local authority, including an animation guide, a slide show, and contribution materials for very large areas. All of this is combined with support for departments through training in the use of the tools.
