The webinar will present the results of the project, the advances in the development and application of the water footprint methodology in cities, and the case of the Footprint Reduction Plan in the City of Cuenca, Ecuador.
The Footprint of Cities Project is an initiative of CAF – development bank of Latin America – in partnership with AFD – French Development Agency – and Climate and Development Alliance (CDKN), and implemented by the consultancy Servicios Ambientales S.A.
