Local Agenda 21: Building Partnerships for Sustainable Development
Being instrumental in the drafting and inclusion of Chapter 28 of Agenda 21, which mandated local governments to undertake a local Agenda 21, ICLEI developed modules and technical trainings to capacitate municipalities in engaging in LA21 processes.
ICLEI's presence in the Southeast Asian Region jump-started in the Philippines during the Local Agenda 21 Distance Training Program in 1996-1998. Participants, who were policy and decision-makers in their respective cities, were trained on participatory and multistakeholder sustainable development planning and LA21 action plans implementation. This distance learning project was housed at the Local Government Academy (a government agency involved in capacity building for local governments), an attached agency of the Department of Interior and Local Government. The LA21 Campaign was funded by GTZ, and managed by ICLEI-Europe.
