Greetings from the League of Cities of the Philippines!

 

The ESCAP and UNEP is pleased to invite interested cities to participate in its project on the localization of Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 7, “Clean energy for sustainable and low carbon cities.” The project aims to support Southeast Asian cities to accelerate progress on the implementation of SDG 7 by helping cities to develop local sustainable energy policies and projects and establish effective dialogues between national, sub-national, and local levels of governance.

 

Cities can express their interest to participate in the project by accomplishing the attached questionnaire on or before 22 May 2020. Accomplished questionnaires and further inquiries may be sent to sdgplatform@citynet-ap.org. ESCAP and UNEP will send their analysis and feedback to cities’ SDG 7 implementation. Said organizations will work closely with selected participating cities in 2021 in developing SDG 7 responsive initiatives.

 

You may also reach out to the LCP Secretariat for further information and assistance thru league.cities.philippines@gmail.com.

 

Thank you very much.

 

Sincerely,

 

 

Atty. Shereen Gail Yu-Pamintuan

LCP Executive Director
