The European Commission has launched the Destination Earth (DestinE) initiative to build a virtual replica of the Earth, with the goal of enabling digital twins of the Earth system by 2030. As of today, DestinE consists of two digital twins: one on climate change adaptation, and one on extreme weather events, with more replicas on other thematic domains such as oceans and biodiversity to follow.
On behalf of the Urban Transitions Mission Centre (UTMC) and the Urban Transitions Mission (UTM), we are pleased to invite you to join us online for our event “Cities of the Future: Energy & Digital Pathways to Climate Neutrality,” which will take place on April 15, 2025, from 7:00 to 10:00 (CET) / 15:00 to 18:00 (South Korean Time).
Digitalisation support tools and Digital Twins
The European Commission has recently launched a new initiative to “Increase Digitalisation Awareness & Readiness of EU Communities”. The aim of this initiative is to support EU communities at the early stages or that have not yet begun their digital transformation journey by providing resources, best practices, and training to develop digital strategies.
La città è un sistema complesso, composto da un elevato numero di componenti che interagiscono all’interno dei (sotto)sistemi che la compongono. In particolare, negli ambienti attuali, caratterizzati da ambiti diversi e soggetti a crisi climatiche, ambientali, economiche e sociali, sempre più complesse e difficili da risolvere, la necessità di perseguire uno sviluppo pienamente sostenibile appare sempre più urgente.

The main objective of this European Commission initiative is to support the development of comprehensive digital strategies and plans (in line with the Digital Decade) that will help municipalities achieve their green and digital objectives.
On 12 March 2025, with the support of a consortium of organisations, the Local Government Management Agency (LGMA) held a hybrid dissemination session to engage with their cities and local communities and enhance the awareness and preparedness of Irish communities in their digital and green transition journey.
