It will also help in delivering on the Sustainable Development Goal 11, by making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable. This will include access to sustainable transport (11.2), improving air quality and waste management (11.6).<\/p>\n<p>This global project will develop normative guides and national action plans and local implementation concepts in emerging economies in Brazil, India, Kenya and Vietnam with replication to be taken up in several other countries. These plans will include assessment of political, technological, socio-economic and financial viability. <\/p>\n<p>The project will support capacity building and sharing of lessons learned between cities where the local implementation concepts will be developed into bankable projects, focusing on the access to urban basic services to create a direct link between climate change mitigation and sustainable development goals.
