Local Sustainable
Development
In order to achieve this we see three pivotal domains of change: decentralised democratic systems, effective and equitable
service delivery, and local sustainable development.
Local sustainable development recognises the importance of local strategies and actions to address global trends and challenges like rapid urbanization and climate change. Local and regional governments play a key role in local sustainable development both from an environmental, socio-cultural and economic perspective. With a proper institutional framework, local and regional governments are ideally placed to support local sustainable development.
