Opportunities and benefits of climate action


The city's opportunities to improve and evolve, while also contributing to the achievement of sustainable development goals, are largely found in the use of new technologies and big data, as well as in accelerating the entry of innovative solutions into its operations city. The city's main challenge is to rapidly adapt to sustainable systemic changes, including redesigning and delivering urban infrastructure and services that enhance citizen participation and connectivity, shape a thriving and sustainable city, build a dynamic urban economy, while responding and support climate resilience and disaster management.
