The Smart Cities Marketplace has invited the EU islands secretariat to take part in its podcast series Urban Reverb and to discuss the similarities between the decarbonisation efforts of small and mid-sized cities and those of islands. We explore whether islands can serve as models for the decarbonisation of towns. Additionally, we delve into the support provided by the EU islands secretariat's "30 for 2030" call, the challenges faced by islands and strategies for engaging citizens in the energy transition. Listen to Jan Cornillie (3E) coordinator of the EU islands secretariat, Maja Jurisic, Pokreta Otoka / Island Movement, Croatia, Jorge Rodrigues de Almeida (RdA) Matchmaker of the Smart Cities Marketplace as well as the EU islands secretariat and Petya Pishmisheva from the EU Covenant of Mayors.
