Marcelline Bonneau, via Resilia Solutions, is working on projects for societal transition of city administration.

Via my role as a URBACT Programme, Lead Expert (GreenPlace) and Ad Hoc expert (REFILL, BIOCANTEENS, MAPS), together with my position as an expert to the EUI Ground for Well-being project (Amsterdam), EUI Time2Adapt project (European Metropolis of Lille), UIA Circular South project (Antwerp) and to the UIA TAST’in FIVES project (Lille), New European Bauhaus expert and AMI expert (as the REGIO Communities of Practitioners' Manager), and within a variety of other local and transitional projects, I support integrated governance processes via peer-to-peer learning amongst EU cities.

After having worked in consultancies evaluating European public policies and programmes, doing impact assessments and bringing technical assistance, I now contribute to reinforcing the link between local and European levels via learning and exchange.  I propose services from facilitating co-creation processes (methodology designs, facilitation of activities, experimentations, …) and stimulating participation (via community management, visualization, …). In addition I do research and analysis and contributes to various project via ad hoc oral and written contributions.

Sustainable food (especially responsible for the URBACT Food Knowledge Hub), sustainable consumption, foodwaste, circular economy, climate change, energy transition, (innovative) public procurement, grassroots initiatives, temporary use of vacant spaces, social innovation, Just Transitions, are some of the topics I cover. Leadership, governance, urban planning, integrated approaches, empowerment are some of the transversal approaches I investigate.

By combining theory and practice, I have almost 20 years years been working with public authorities and local initiatives. I am focusing especially on the interactions between stakeholders via co-creation towards a more resilient society. This way, I have supported the development of local action plans and strategies, communication and stakeholder engagement and mobilisation strategies, set-up of local councils, identification of EU funds opportunities and capacity-building for EU funds applications, ...

With a background in public policy and management of the environment, I seek to link theory and practices, grassroots activities and strategic ones, the local and EU levels (incl. Urban Agenda Partnerships).
