This global initiative works towards reducing greenhouse gas emissions and currently has over 10,000 committed cities from 130 different countries.

It is designing an action plan with a focus on 2025 to achieve improvements for the next decades, and many of our projects are included in the nationally determined contributions (NDC).\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Regarding the Caribbean Association of Local Government Authorities (CALGA), its President, Anthony Roberts, commented on the significant impact of climate change in the region. He discussed how the phenomenon is causing erosion in one of the Caribbean&#8217;s main tourist attractions, its beaches. Roberts stated, \u00abDespite being new to the Covenant, we have found valuable knowledge that is helping us build capacities to address the issue of climate change.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>The Mayor of Godoy Cruz (Argentina) highlighted the Argentine Network of Municipalities against Climate Change (RAMCC), consisting of 200 cities in Argentina that are already part of the Covenant. He mentioned, \u00abHalf of them have developed climate action inventories, and the other half have Climate Action Plans.\u00bb Additionally, Garc\u00eda emphasized the positive influence of the network on the national government. \u00abWe shared a document with the government for COP25; it is very important to improve these alliances, work with universities, and obtain data to measure the progress we make.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-7059 size-full webpexpress-processed\" src=\"https:\/\/pactodealcaldes-la.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/c2-Tadeo-Garc%C3%ADa.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pactodealcaldes-la.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/c2-Tadeo-Garc\u00eda.jpg 960w, https:\/\/pactodealcaldes-la.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/c2-Tadeo-Garc\u00eda-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/pactodealcaldes-la.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/c2-Tadeo-Garc\u00eda-768x511.jpg 768w\" alt=\"\" width=\"960\" height=\"639\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Tadeo Garc\u00eda, the Mayor of Godoy Cruz:<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Mariana Asfora, the Executive Director of Urban Planning at the Pel\u00f3pidas Silveira City Planning Institute (ICPS) in Recife (Brazil), pointed out that when they conducted a vulnerability study, they realized that \u00abwe were one of the most vulnerable cities in the world due to rising sea levels and floods.\u00bb When asked about the contribution of the Covenant, she stated, \u00abWith the support of the Covenant, we developed a municipal project on climate change mitigation and adaptation, a linear park around the Capibaribe River that integrates various solutions into urban planning.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Carlos Cubides, the Director of the Climate Change Office of the municipality of T\u00f3paga (Colombia), spoke about the significant development the municipality has experienced through the Covenant. \u00abWhen we applied to be part of the GCoM, they were very surprised that such a small municipality had a climate change office and such high initiatives and goals. There is a before and after joining the Covenant. We had already developed our climate change plan, but with the Covenant, we created our municipal GHG inventory and understood how to prioritize the measures we should implement to have the greatest impact in the shortest possible time.\u00bb<\/p>\n<p>Cubides also stated, \u00abWith the help of the Covenant and ICLEI, we established the Functional Territorial Region of Climate Change. The project was so well-received that we went from 8 to 30 municipalities, benefiting 250,000 people through the project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Friday, November 22, a regional dialogue took place among representatives from cities around the world that are part of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy (GCoM) Delegates from 7 countries in Latin America and the Caribbean participated in the event.\u00bb Photograph of the interregional dialogue of the Global Covenant of Mayors&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":378,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1020","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sin-categoria-en","category-16","description-off"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
