The project aimed to strengthen capacity of city authorities, local institutions and other stakeholders of the cities in climate change mitigation and adaptation initiatives.<br \/>\nThe activities carried out in the project included training on Bilan Carbone\u00a9 analysis and \u2018Territorial Climate and Energy Plan\u2019 approach, assessing greenhouse gas emissions at the city level, developing climate and energy plan, initiating pilot projects on mitigation and adaptation involving local stakeholders, and sharing experiences among participating cities. The major outcomes of these activities are discussed in this document. The project made an important contribution in sensitizing urban authorities (mayors, councilors, etc.) on the impacts of climate change, and on the need to take action at policy and implementation level for both mitigation and adaptation, following the principle of \u2018think globally and act locally\u2019.<br \/>\n<em><a title=\"ADEME Booklet\" href=\"\/kumar\/files\/ADEME-booklet.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Read more&#8230;<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ADEME Booklet Action Towards Resource-efficient and Low Carbon Cities in Asia Experiences and Highlights PUBLISHED BY Asian Institute of Technology (AIT) P.
