WIMBY Concept

About wimby

WIMBY is an European funded project supporting the adoption and acceptance of wind-power in the European Union. It will develop innovative tools to facilitate citizen and stakeholders interaction, knowledge sharing, and collaborative evaluation of impacts, conflicts, synergies and social innovation potential.

The main objective of this research is to mitigate the “Not in my backyard” (NIMBY) effect by providing practical information that all stakeholders and citizens can use for simple and comprehensible assessments, aimed at creating a common ground for participatory decision making processes.
