UN-Habitat and ICLEI are jointly implementing the Urban-LEDS II project:
Accelerating climate action through the promotion of Urban Low Emission
Development Strategies in more than 60 cities worldwide in the Urban-LEDS
II project, using a multilevel governance approach to urban climate action.
The project is funded by the European Union.
Through the Urban-LEDS II project, the local governments of selected cities
are guided to create community-scale Urban Low Emissions Development
Strategies (Urban-LEDS) that also address climate resilience. These will be
aligned to and ideally inform the Nationally Determined Contributions
(NDCs) and National Adaptation Plans (NAPs), and implementation of these
plans will start in the project’s lifetime.
*SCOPE OF WORK*
Indonesia is part of phase I of the Urban-LEDS Project, wherein project
cities were supported in ensuring local low emission development. This is
made possible through the provision of technical assistance in exploring
innovative approaches in involving external stakeholders, developing low
emission development scenarios through the conduct of GHG emissions
inventory and development of urban-LEDS action plan, and improving
institutional capacity to plan, act, and monitor.
It is well recognized that the way a city is planned and operated,
including the lifestyles of citizens, is a major contributor to global
greenhouse gas emissions that cause climate emergencies. For example,
continuing dependence on fossil-fuel consumption for transportation and
electricity as well as an increasing municipal waste generation will go
hand in hand with the growth of sprawling cities. Moreover, urban growth
will increasingly be driven by climate emergencies triggering rural-urban
migration. The complexity of city development challenges can be answered by
designing urban development towards a smart, inclusive and sustainable city
which means that the capacity of local government planners is playing an
important role.
