ICCAMGR Hosted its National Conference to Discuss
Environmental Protection
and Climate Change
On April 1, 2016, at the Holiday Inn Hotel, the USAID funded program the
Institutionalization of Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation in Georgian
Regions (ICCAMGR) hosted the National Conference on “Climate Change at the
Local Level: Policy and Action”. The National Conference gathered
representatives from the national and municipal governments. In addition,
speeches were given by the First Deputy Minister of the Environment and
Natural Resources Protection, Mr. Teimuraz Murghulia and First Deputy
Minister of Regional Development and Infrastructure, Mr. Tengiz
Shergelashvili and Representatives of USAID.
The main purpose of the Conference was to review and officially approve the
Road Map on Climate Change Adaptation, a sophisticated tool for supporting
national and municipal policy development. This report was created with
ICCAMGR’s framework. In addition, participants gained from the
international experience of guests from Armenia, France and Austria about
practical mechanisms for integrating local authorities into national
decision making processes.
The ICCAMGR program promotes integration of environmental and climate change
considerations into the agenda of local authorities in Georgia. The program
started institutionalizing climate change adaptation practices through
establishment of special commissions on climate change and sustainable
development within local municipal governments. To-date, ICCAMGR has
established 65 municipal-based commissions to serve as critical
communications links between the local and national authorities. All
commission members have received intensive trainings in relevant fields and
gained knowledge and skills to identify and effectively adapt to climate
change issues in their municipalities. These commissions, or working groups,
work to ensure the effective implementation of a broad range of statutory
functions of local authorities related to natural resources management, land
use and sustainable development.
