Key messages:
The countries of Central and Eastern Europe (EEC) have their own models of energy and transport vulnerabilities. Lower than the EU average, old and energy inefficient buildings and dependence on polluting fuels for heating are all common features across the region.
Carrying out a national analysis and understanding local vulnerabilities are fundamental for the development of social climate plans.
The policy-making process requires not only a good understanding of the realities of each country, but also institutional coordination and cooperation between the different levels of governance.
