2019 Highlights Under the ongoing Low Carbon Cities (LCC) programme, MGTC conducted training with three local authorities in 2019 . The two- day sessions offered a two-way approach for authorities to adopt the Low Carbon Cities Framework in their areas of jurisdiction. A total of 140 participants from Majlis Daerah Kuala Langat, Majlis Daerah Hulu Selangor and Majlis Perbandaran Kuantan participated in the training. MGTC also conducted two Townhall sessions to explain the Low Carbon Cities Framework to 170 participants from Majlis Perbandaran Batu Pahat and Majlis Perbandaran Kajang. Pictures from MGTC’s Townhall session on Low Carbon Cities Framework Through capacity development, we hope to enable officers from local authorities to measure CO 2 emissions, develop emissions baselines, as well as draft and implement action plans. LOW CARBON CITIES TRAINING PROGRAMME What’s Next ›› MGTC aims to conduct more training and Townhall sessions for local authorities in order to facilitate the rapid roll-out of the Low Carbon Cities Framework to address climate change and ensure Malaysia stays true to its commitment to the Paris Climate Agreement. MGTC will also continue with the one-time fee for universities, industrial and other buildings, parks and companies to register under low carbon zones. LCC programmes such as LCC Help Desk @ MGTC, Meet & Greet Day and Clinics will continue to be conducted. 68 MALAYSIAN GREEN TECHNOLOGY & CLIMATE CHANGE CENTRE ANNUAL REPORT 2019
