Season 3 – Episode 1 Of City Climate Innovation Special: Multi-level Partnerships And Governance

In this first episode we kick things off with the Special Envoy for Cities in CHAMP (the Coalition for High Ambition Multilevel Partnerships), Global Ambassador for the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate and Energy, and former three-term mayor of Vancouver, British Columbia, Gregor Robertson.

We also have Professor Nicola Tollin, Chairholder and Coordinator of the UNESCO Chair on Urban Resilience at the University of Southern Denmark – perhaps more recently known for spearheading the research on the urban content of the nationally determined contributions (NDCs).

These guests join hosts Ben Jance and Cathy Oke in the first episode of City Climate Innovation, special episodes of the ClimateTalks Podcast produced by GCoM. This marks the third series of special episodes of the ClimateTalks Podcast series produced in partnership with GCoM, now focused on the key themes of the 2024 Innovate4Cities Conference.

Today, we will explore the potential for multi-level partnerships and governance efforts to address city-level research & innovation demands in the face of climate change.

The clip at the beginning of the episode is Gregor Robertson speaking at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Bonn, Germany.
