CLES / KAS / AvH Online Depository of Climate Action Law and Developments in Municipalities of Southern Africa

Welcome to the Online Depository of Climate Action Law and Developments in Municipalities of Southern Africa by the South African Research Chair in Cities, Law and Environmental Sustainability (CLES) / Alexander von Humboldt (AvH) / Konrad Adenauer Foundation (KAS).

The aim of this depository is to capture and make available information on how a selection of municipalities in Africa at present provides for climate action in their:

• Local laws (by-laws) and policies;
• Local spatial and management plans;
• Organisational structure of the municipality; and
• Local projects, programmes and other initiatives and experiments.

In addition the depository also aims to keep an up to date index of all city-led climate litigation in Africa.
