3.2.3 Awareness raising activities for municipal employees<br />

A significant step to achieve the planned targets is to have properly communicated the<br />

municipality’s intentions to the people working within those buildings. In this respect, this<br />

action comprises of a set of targeted awareness raising activities towards the municipal<br />

employees. The aim of these activities is to encourage the municipal employees to change<br />

their behavior and habits in order to achieve the envisaged results.<br />

The set of awareness raising and training actions to be realised for the municipal employees<br />

includes the following:<br />

• Training workshops and seminars for the team members directly involved in the <strong>SECAP</strong><br />

implementation and monitoring. This activity aims at the capacity building regarding<br />

<strong>SECAP</strong> development and project implementation of the employees directly involved in the<br />

<strong>SECAP</strong> implementation team. These workshops and seminars could be targeted on how<br />

to attract financing from international donors, to manage the project implementation or<br />

even focus on the exchange of best practices and ideas with other municipalities in Jordan<br />

and abroad that face the same challenges. Workshops on the latest available know how<br />

in terms of energy efficiency and RES technologies are envisaged as well.<br />

• Development and circulation of promotional material through the employees’ e-mails on<br />

the benefits of energy efficiency and how simple behavior changes impact the total<br />

consumption.<br />

• Municipal contest for the administrative building with the highest energy savings achieved<br />

(in terms of %) due to users’ behavior change. This contest prize could be any incentive<br />

provided to the employees, such as two additional days off that year or the development<br />

of posters with the pictures and names of the employees that contributed to the goal. The<br />

aim would be to achieve energy savings through strictly behavioral change, such as turning<br />

off the lights, the A/C and office equipment when leaving the office, not leaving open<br />

windows with the A/C on etc. This measure could be used during the first couple of years,<br />

when the rest of the energy efficiency interventions will be gradually taking place.<br />

This action will be realized in Project fiche’s #5 framework. (Energy savings and emission<br />

reduction are calculated separately from the fiche.<br />
