Supporting sustainable growth in emerging cities in Latin America & the Caribbean
Paris Agreement
While national governments may set emission reduction targets, regional governments often have more influence on how policies are implemented. Many of these sub-national projects and commitments are listed under the NAZCA portal.
The Emerging and Sustainable Cities Initiative shows how cities in Latin America and the Caribbean are working together for climate action. This regional cooperation can drive the global community towards a highly resilient, low-carbon future, while at the same time helping to meet stated international climate goals.
