In response, the municipality is already implementing a broader urban greening strategy and is seeking to accelerate this work by transforming vacant land and neglected spaces into new green living areas.  

The Agglomeration of Saint-Quentin is strongly engaged in ecological and social transition through its Climate Air Energy Plan, its Local Food Strategy and the development of a Social and Solidarity Economy strategy. While these planning tools already exist or are currently being updated, there is a need to accelerate implementation through concrete actions linking ecological transition and social economy.  

Municipalities are increasingly facing the combined impacts of climate change, rising energy costs, geopolitical crises and pressure on public services. At the same time, municipal staff are directly exposed to these challenges in their day-to-day work, whether in technical services, maintenance, public space management or administrative support.
