Community Jameel and The King's Foundation jointly host a roundtable event, Building partnerships to deliver climate action in cities on 1 December 2023 at Jameel Arts Centre in Dubai, during COP28. The event convenes high level representatives from UN-Habitat, Commonwealth governments and organisations, youth and student groups and donors to build partnerships, raise awareness and explore evidence-based solutions towards climate action in cities.
The event includes high level presentations from five key speakers followed by a roundtable discussion with 25 participants. This impact-driven event acknowledges the Declaration on Sustainable Urbanisation and leverages insights from the Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL) and The King's Foundation's University of Oxford-partnered research to advance multi-level government action and evidence-based policy innovations.
