Clean City Partnership Program (C2P2) Seminar: Urban Agenda on Climate Change, Pollution and Biodiversity Loss

In order to achieve the 1.5 degree target set in the Paris Agreement, it is essential for cities, which account for about 70% of global greenhouse gas emissions and energy consumption, to make the transition to decarbonization. International efforts to support urban initiatives are being strengthened.

In February 2023, MOEJ together with JICA, launched the Clean Cities Partnership Program (C2P2) to address today's challenges faced by cities around the world from multiple perspectives. With the participation of Japanese local governments, private companies, financial institutions, and others, and in collaboration with MDBs, this program will provide comprehensive and synergistic support for urban agenda including climate change, environmental pollution, circular economy, and nature positive in partner cities.

In this seminar, MOEJ and JICA will present their initiatives and good practices of C2P2 from Japanese local governments and partner cities will be shared.
