Through the CLARE Opportunity Fund, two significant climate initiatives are gaining momentum in Asia. In order to enable officials at Provincial Municipal Learning Centers to establish gender-inclusive local adaptation plans of action, the Municipal Association (MuAN) in Nepal is creating a training manual and organising training programmes for all the PMLCs of Nepal.

In the meantime, ICLEI South Asia is spearheading a heat action plan for Bangladesh’s Narayanganj City Corporation, aimed at establishing a scalable model for other cities to address extreme heat impacts. These projects target essential local needs and leverage regional expertise, driving sustainable development across Bangladesh, Nepal, and India. As we clear the path for resilient communities, stay tuned for updates!
