Guidebook: How to develop a Climate Action Plan (CAP) in Southeast Asia-Indonesia

The Global Covenant of Mayors in Southeast Asia (GCoM SEA) supports Indonesian local authorities in the climate challenge and in their efforts in building more sustainable and resilient communities. It is the "regional covenant" of the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate & Energy (GCoM). Under the GCoM SEA, local authorities are invited to take a voluntary political commitment to implement climate and energy actions in their communities and to agree on a long-term vision to tackle the three pillars of the initiative:, climate mitigation and climate adaptation and access to energy (global framework under development). In order to translate the political commitment into practical measures, GCoM SEA signatories have also to elaborate and implement a Climate Action Plan (CAP). This guidebook has been prepared to assist Indonesian local governments in preparing coherent and effective Climate Action Plans by means of step-by-step guidance and examples of measures especially relevant for the local authorities working in the Indonesian context. The Guidebook is coherent with the Global Covenant of Mayors Common Reporting Framework (CRF) whose structure allows to the specific choice and sequence of actions to vary according to the policies and measures already in place. This initial overview serves as a basis and should assist the Indonesian local governments in developing a Climate Action Plan (CAP) according to the general principles set out in the GCoM Common Reporting Framework (CRF). ; JRC.C.2 - Energy Efficiency and Renewables
