Accepted Paper:

Climate Change Plans in intermediate cities in Colombia – the case of Manizales  
Carlos Mario Marín (Manizales City Hall) Natalia Escobar (Manizales City Hall)

Paper short abstract:

This contribution analyzes recent developments within the city of Manizales, Colombia, around tools, mechanisms and actors involved in the design and implementation of the local Climate Change Plan.

Paper long abstract:

Manizales is located in the center-western region of Colombia. Right above the central mountain range (2150 meters above sea level) and with a population around 450.000 inhabitants. The city is located along a profoundly abrupt topographical condition, which supposes diverse urban development challenges. In coherence with the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) for Colombia, Manizales has devised a complex and daring collection of instruments in order to advance with local climate change goals and contributing to the national targets. This proposal aims at compiling the tools, mechanisms and actors involved in the design and implementation of the local Climate Change Plan, in the context of critically evaluating the accomplishments of local targets, and promoting better climate governance.
