Responsibilities

Creating policies for sustainable urban development with the Agenda 2030 and the SDGs as a framework of sustainable development. One of the objectives of this ambassadorial role is to strengthen the representation of cities at national and European level by promoting specific activities in each country in cooperation with the 'Covenant of Mayors' and mobilizing other entities to join this movement. This is also an opportunity to improve this pact by obtaining personalized feedback from the territories, reinforcing their role in the implementation of the European Climate Pact.
