*Background *United Cities and Local Governments Asia Pacific (UCLG ASPAC)
is the largest regional section of UCLG, an amalgamation of International
Union of Local Authorities (IULA), United Towns Organization (UTO), and
World Association of the Major Metropolises (METROPOLIS). UCLG was
established on 1 January 2004 and is headquartered in Barcelona, Spain.
Following this unification, UCLG ASPAC was established in Taipei on 14
April 2004, as the new entity of IULA ASPAC.
UCLG ASPAC is the key knowledge management hub on local government issues
in the Asia-Pacific region. It promotes democratic local government,
supports cooperation between cities, local governments and their
associations, and facilitates programmes, network and partnerships to
develop the capacity of local governments and the associations. Moreover,
UCLG ASPAC represents local governments politically within the
international community, and with the United Nations and its agencies. It
also promotes inclusive societies that safeguard equality, social and
economic justice, and sustainable community development. UCLG ASPAC is
engaged in all relevant thematic fields for nurturing sustainable
development comprising local economic development, climate change, disaster
resiliency, culture, strategic planning, decentralisation, municipal
finance, gender equality, women leadership and empowerment and good
governance.
LOCALISE SDGs Project, financially supported by the European Union and
implemented by UCLG ASPAC in cooperation with APEKSI, aims to empower Local
Authorities (LAs) and Associations of Local Authorities (ALAs) in Indonesia
for enhanced governance and more effective development policies and to
promote inclusive and sustainable local development through SDGs
attainment. LOCALISE SDGs targets 30 LAs (16 provinces and 14
municipalities) and 5 ALAs[1] <#_ftn1> (APEKSI, APKASI, APPSI, ADEKSI, and
ADKASI). Further information on LOCALISE SDGs target LAs is available at:

The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has shifted the focus of target
LAs to respond to, recover and prevent against the pandemic. From July to
December 2020, LOCALISE SDGs will focus its activities to increase
awareness of the 30 LAs and 5 ALAs on financing and achieving the SDGs
under a New Normal: challenges and response to COVID-19 pandemic and
strengthen their capacity in handling COVID-19 and its impacts and
“building back better” through dissemination of best practices and
Information, Education & Communication (IEC) materials. One of the
materials to be developed is videos as awareness tool for the target ALAs.
LOCALISE SDGs will hire consultants to prepare a total of five videos (one
for each target ALA) to build awareness of their secretariat team and as a
tool to advocate for the SDGs among their members. Each video will have a
customised message to meet the needs and values of each ALA. The video
should be in line with the key message of “AKSI MENUJU PEMBANGUNAN
BERKELANJUTAN.” The ALA can also upload the video on its own communication
channels and use it for routine events to promote awareness on localising
SDGs.
