Time4MultilevelAction Dialogue: Strengthening Multilevel and Inclusive Governance for Climate Action

Messages from African Mayors for COP26

Session organized by CoM SSA Africa

This session will provide the opportunity for African Mayors to engage in discussion with African negotiators, the European Commission, and key members of the LGMA around the expected outcomes of the negotiations at COP26 and the implications for cities in Africa. City leaders will have the chance to provide their perspectives from their communities and the action they are taking on the ground as well as outcomes from both CoM SSA Day at the Climate Chance Summit and Africa Climate Week, which took place earlier in September 2021. They will also be given the opportunity to share their expectations in relation to SEACAPS and related climate action plans, as well as how they envision unlocking climate finance for sustainable infrastructure, climate change adaptation, energy access and Nature-based Solutions (NbS).
