The Water as Leverage Multilevel Climate Action Programme (WaL) proudly presents the City Champion Challenge - an initiative designed to drive innovative solutions for the most pressing water-related climate challenges in urban environments, such as flooding, drought and pollution. Urban stakeholders and cities who have developed initiatives that promote just, and sustainable water and climate resilience are invited to submit their initiative. The Challenge offers a unique opportunity of collaboration between leading cities and stakeholders, gaining international visibility and contributing to addressing critical water-related challenges through inclusive and integrated solutions.
To celebrate accomplishments of selected initiatives, and to inspire others, the three finalists will be invited to the 12th World Urban Forum (WUF 12), taking place in Cairo, Egypt (4-8 November 2024) to present their initiatives. During a peer-to peer co-creative learning workshop, the finalists will present their initiatives, and gain insights and reflect on next steps to move the initiatives forward. Finalists will also become part of the WaL Global Community and will have their initiatives featured on the Water as Leverage Website.
