WUF 12: Event

Financing climate protection in small cities and municipalities through partnership

Using intermunicipal cooperation to overcome structural challenges

Financing climate protection and climate change adaptation measures is a major challenge for small cities and municipalities for several reasons. Intermunicipal cooperation between cities, municipalities and counties can help to overcome structural challenges and provide an efficient way to sustainable and comprehensive finance climate protection measures. By pooling financial and human resources, larger climate protection projects (such as the climate partnership between the County of Karlsruhe (Germany) and the city of Brusque (Brazil)) with an international impact can be implemented.
