Sustainable Cities & Regions
Supporting the delivery of more sustainable, low carbon cities and regions
Cities and regions globally are taking considerable steps to reduce their environmental impact to avoid the risks associated with climate change and to create healthy, thriving spaces for citizens. To do this, they must tackle complex sustainability challenges such as reducing carbon emissions, improving air quality and developing sustainable mobility.
Collaboration between local, regional and national governments, the private sector and other agencies and civil society groups is essential to responding to these challenges whilst taking advantage of economic opportunities, such as the green recovery, to build more resilient communities and enable a fair and just transition.
