Voices from Talanoa

“We need national governments to raise ambition. This will not happen unless cities do so as well. You have a leading role to play in advancing the Paris Agreement... The Talanoa Dialogue is a chance for you to have your voices and experiences heard and for people around the world to learn what you have done.”

- Patricia Espinosa
Executive Secretary, UNFCCC

“The Resilient Cities congress is an integral part of the Bonn talks.”

- Jochen Flasbarth
State Secretary, German Federal Ministry for the Environment

“In the next month we will have another dialogue as a continuation of the first. If these Talanoa Dialogues continue to take place around the world we believe our efforts to fight climate change will be much more efficient and effective.”

- Oswar Mungkasa
Deputy Governor, Jakarta, Indonesia
