The primary goal of the project is to deliver the sustainable development goals with a special focus on climate change, reducing inequalities and ensuring peace, justice and strong institutions. Specifically, it aims to ensure that the youth are contributing to cities to become climate smart, resilient and sustainable and that the cities are committed to (have developed roadmaps for trajectories towards 1.5 degrees including mitigation and adaptation, as well as guided by solutions and visions presented by youth. This will be achieved by engaging schools children and youth as key drivers for change in influencing decision makers to make commitments and actions towards having climate resilient and sustainable cities. The project will engage in capacity building of the youth on climate change and sustainable lifestyles and support them to develop visions and solutions for their cities. A climate council, composed of leaders and policy makers, will be initiated to give the school children and youth an opportunity to present their visions and solutions for climate smart cities with a follow up mechanism in place to ensure that these recommendations are implemented. In addition, innovative solutions, green entrepreneurship and a regional networking platform will be set-up to effectively achieve the objectives of the project.

Rajkot lies within the watershed expansion of Aji river basin and it is a network of 19 natural drainage courses, locally known as vokdas. Unfortunately, these vokdas are being used for sewage and solid waste disposal which has led to environmental degradation of the same. Water supply depends in the first months after the monsoon to a certain degree on local water supply sources. 90% of total water supply of city is depending on Narmada water, which is sourced from 700 km away from the city and consumes huge electricity. Soil stratum in Rajkot region consists of hard rock. Moreover, the confined aquifer layer is thin. Hence, the availability of ground water for potable use in Rajkot is limited. Catchment area management and measures for aquifer recharge are potential solutions to this problem.The study of assessing potential for augmentation of local water resources through ground water/ aquifer recharge, rain water harvesting, and waste water reuse study has been done as part of CapaCITIES project, which will not only conserve rain water and improove ground water quality but also mitigates flooding impact. Ground water recharge structure is implemented and tested at 5 potential flood prone location. | Feasibility undertaken | International (ODA) | 1286995 | 2011 | 2019-10-16T18:33:19.143 | |||||
