Home care services for frail people are considered essential for the well-being of people, they are often provided by Social Enterprises, engaged by Local Authorities; but they are often not taken into account in the mobility plans of cities. Yet they have an impact on traffic and air pollution. Through the use of the Carbon footprint methodology, a tool has been defined for developing a common sustainable mobility strategy and action plan with the aim of improving services, collaboration between local authorities and social enterprises. The new tool has been used to reduce the CO2 generated by the provision of social services. To reach this output partners had developed: a research activity for the definition of a common methodology to assess the current environmental impact of social services, focusing on CO2 emissions (D.1.2.1.); a Baseline analysis of the territories involved creating a common basis to assess the positive impacts generated by project activities and beyond (D.1.2.2.); a common action plan and strategy for greener mobility to be adopted by the Local Authorities and Social Enterprises (D.1.2.3).

The Green LaMiS project aims to develop a transnational solution to make the last mile of home social services delivery more sustainable in medium to small-sized cities in Central Europe. The project aims at creating a common strategy and action plan using an innovative methodological tool that calculates the Carbon Footprint and considers territorial and service characteristics. To ensure long-term impact, capacity-building activities will be conducted to equip LAs and SEs with the skills to monitor and reduce CO2 emissions in urban social mobility. The findings will be integrated into existing green urban mobility plans to support future improvements. On this premise, the project partners have signed a collaboration agreement in which they have defined the actions they commit to develop together for a more sustainable future for urban mobility in Central Europe.

The project aims to increase the green effectiveness of the last mile of home social services delivery in small-medium size cities of CE. The transnational cooperation and the application in 3 pilot cities in IT-HU-HR will contribute to provide green long-term solutions for social services urban mobility,including peripheral and hinterlands. The Green LaMiS project aims at tackling the common territorial challenges affecting the sector of home care services’ delivery by SEs in CE area, to make the last mile of such delivery greener. The output has been developed for the following aims: - consolidating the partners' visions, expectations and mid-term objectives on how to make the urban mobility connected to the delivery of home social services greener and with reduced CO2 emissions - engage various stakeholders that are relevant for the project's objective - identify and develop common methodologies, tools and strategies to tackle the above-mentioned challenges - identify financial support sources to implement project activities - provide solid data and evaluations to develop sustainable mobility policies in the three participating municipalities.

Report from Partners will present the results of the experiences in a consolidated manner, so that it will be possible to use them to create a joint solution for the CE region. This report will be used also to create a set of policy recommendations for local and regional policy makers. The pilot actions will apply the WP1 strategy and action plan (carbon footprint tool and the innovative indicators) to concretely create a solution for greening the home services offered by local authorities in partnership with social enterprises. (D.2.2.2 and Output 2.1)

The strategies and action plans envisaged in WP1 and the pilot projects in WP2 create the conditions for developing sustainable and measurable mobility of the carbon footprint for home-based social services (Output 3.1). The solutions structured at the transnational level will take into account the methodology, strategy, and the joint solution tested. The solution will contain all the key indicators of the new carbon footprint model to be used in other contexts together with the strategy and methodology developed. D.3.2.1
