Abstract
The city of Hamburg, as all other cities around the world, has to deal with the consequences of climate change. As cities are not just one of the main affected systems, but also one of the main causes, they developed approaches to mitigate their own effects. One political instrument is to promote or facilitate climate change mitigation of their population. This includes also small and medium sized enterprises. This thesis investigates two aspects. On one side, the characteristics of the programs of Hamburg’s ‘UmweltPartnerschaft’ have been investigated. On the other side, the motivation of participating SMEs of a group called ‘UmweltPartner’ has been determined. These two variables have been used to identify a relationship between the design of municipals climate change mitigation strategies and the motivation of participating small and medium sized enterprises. The relationship has been analysed by using descriptive methods and the Kruskal-Wallis-Test.
