Six municipalities from the MENA region have participated in the Local Projects Workshop, which was a 2-days virtual workshop held on the 19th-20th January 2021. The workshop consisted of a series of virtual discussions among the participating municipal representatives and technical and financial experts. The workshop was followed by two virtual sessions on proposal writing for funding and financing of municipal projects held on the 21st and 25th of January 2021 respectively.

The Local Projects Workshop was designed such that the activities are following a normal growth curve of what has been established during the LED Virtual Dialogue event that took place in 2020. The harmony established among participants and the understanding of the rationale of the Connective Cities methodology was expanded on to foster peer-to-peer learning with more attention given this time to individual municipalities needs and visions. The Local Projects Workshop approach leveraged the progress made to date by the 6 participating municipalities while addressing further actions including:

• The interlinkages between LED projects and other areas like education, health, gender, environment, etc.
• Adapting the LED projects to national and global objectives and priorities
• Adapting the LED projects to available resources and existing expertise
• Establishing Strategic and impactful partnerships for the projects
• Risk forecasting and mitigation measures planning
• Best approaches to fund projects with different financing mechanisms and tools.
