Progress and challenges in the urban governance of climate change: results of a global survey

This report summarizes key findings that arose from the first systematic study of this scale to look at how cities are approaching climate change planning and implementation. The study covers both adaptation and mitigation efforts. It provides an overview of who is involved in addressing climate change, what measures they are taking, what barriers they are facing, and how they are resolving them. It also explores how climate change work overlaps with other local government priorities and responsibilities.
