Climate change is still moving faster than we are. Thank you to the 23 countries who signed a declaration for more ambition on climate action. I am convening a climate summit next year and look forward to working with all to protect our planet. bit.ly/2r28wDa

Such an important point, thank you @Ede_WBG. What measures and policies do you recommend to ensure greater inclusion, including just transition, as cities adopt more sustainable infrastructure? #GCAS2018 #SocialGoodTech x.com/Ede_WBG/status/1009800…

The most vulnerable are the #poor and the excluded communities in #urban areas - #resilience is not only about #infrastructure but also social inclusion! #inclusionmatters a LOT! x.com/plus_socialgood/status…
